I thinkit is guanine for the green colour. I don't think testosterone
can cause any colour pigmentation. Being a hormone, enough
testoterone to cause colour would also cause testicles.:-)
The irridescent colours are normally due to crystals under the skin.

A healthy varied diet should increase colour and overall health. The
colour normally comes as a partner to good health and the right
environment factors e.g. morning sunshine.
