You know when you go to the store they have the different color vegetables. My mom bought a green bell pepper. When she bought it home it was green. And then like a week later it was a yellowish orange color. What does that mean. Is it something wrong with it. It was in a bag by itself.

Green, yellow, orange, and red bell peppers are all the same. The difference comes from how ripe they are picked. Green peppers are less ripe than red bell peppers. Your green pepper turning yellow just means it is continuing to ripen, it will eat just fine.

Green bell peppers are just that-green. If left on the plant to ripen they turn into colored peppers. Sometimes it happens anyway.

Nothing's wrong with it. That tends to happen with age.
