 Shedding causing brown color???

This morning when I went to check the temps I saw that my mali uromastyx was brown. Normally his back is a bright greenish-yellow and his head is grey with black stripes. But today he was brown like he was coated in dirt. Even his knees that are normaly white were brown. His colors were fine yesterday. He is acting normal.

So I gave him a bath and his skin is now a little brighter but still kind of brown. I also noticed that he is starting to shed at the tip of his mouth. Any help would be great.

its like a clear color with bits of skin peeling off. I just checked on him and his colors are back to normal. maybe he was just cold. he had just walked out of his hide when he was brown.
