is it ok for my CWD to be brown?

She's brown only on the top, kinda bright green on the bottom. i thought she would be dark because she needs more heat. The whole dark attracts heat theory. I'm not sure if females are usually brown or not. Just wondering.

How old is she? My dragons were usually brown on top as babies, and gradually lightened up as they got older. If she is bright eyed and active, eating well, and her temps are right I wouldn't worry to much. If she is brown and spends most of her time hiding or appears stressed than something is wrong. My males were always darker than my females tho.
