[turtle]

Well he shouldn't have the chance to, but by chance he does eat his own poo he could get pretty sick.

You make it sound like you're unsure that you are capable of finding all of the poo!

Ok well when I got home, I misted him and I fed him some crickets and I think one of the crickets was on the poo it the back that I didn't see so when I looked at him, I think I saw like the white part hanging from his mouth so I'm conserned that he ate the other white part cuz the black part was still there!!!

white part is his urate (pee).
brown part is his actual poo.
Best to always spot clean your chameleon's cage.
Usually, they will defecate on the same spot.
I personally would not get overly worried.
Just make sure that it does not happen again.
Sanitary is one of the important lesson in chameleon's husbandry.

Ok thank you. I usually clean it before I feed him but if was behind his plant so I didn't see it
