And I do not think this is her being aggressive or mad in any way as when I open her enclosure to feed her she runs to the front I only grabbed the pictures bc I noticed she had her mouth open from a distance where she was being left alone
 
Hi,
Try turning off the heat bulb for a while. If it continues even when the enclosure is cooled, you might have to worry about URI. If it stops when the light is off, the enclosure is too hot and you should adjust accordingly.
 
Have you tested the heat coming from the bulb by holding your hand right under the screen so your hand is as close to the light as possible, back of your hand closest to the bulb? If you want to move the hand away then it's possible for your chameleon to get burned.
Just don't want to see your chameleon get burned.

Appreciate it and yuh it’s not to bad I can hold my hand under it but I lifted it a bit I have more questions about possible mouth rot I got some good photos of her as she shredding right now she she opens her mouth to stretch her face to get the shedding off so I got a picture of what I mean by it looking a little greenish yellow darkish phots are a tad blurry just bc I had to zoom a lot bc I didn’t want to bug her
