Amazing how fast they change. Is the color change due to sun, or do they change anyway? I thought I had seen some others, not yours that still had a brown/black coloring and they weren't babies.

That's really cool, they are cuties when they are brown but they go straight to knockout when they turn black.

:tort: I am unsure if it due to direct sun or just in time. It seems that some take a lot longer if not in the real sunshine.
