 Help Please!!

My male anole has been acting strange for the past week. Before, he was always a nice bright green all the time, I added some sticks, and he usually stayed brown. I thought it was just because of the whole new set up and stress, but he began to come around and turn green, but not nearly as often as before.

Here’s where I get worried- I worked all day today and came home to feed him. I sprayed the tank first, where he turned a bright green. I then dropped in the crickets, and he would look at him, but not chase after them to eat. He then turned a dark brown color. He has never not eaten before, and I can’t figure out what’s wrong because I haven’t done anything different since the day I got him, and this change has happened recently. Any ideas, PLEASE help!

 Help Please!!

how long have you had him??
He could be entering his shedding period---in which they wont eat before--or during shedding. Watch him closely. Is he dark brown most of the day--pastel green at night?!? What is your environment like?size--furniture--water supply?
