Huge Dropping

[DeviousMike]

So I've had my new cham for a week now, taking over ownership from one of our forum members. For the whole week, I did not notice droppings but just as I walked by the cage, I saw two. One looked normal, but another is like 2 inches long including urate! I would post a picture, but it's DISGUSTING. Anyways, is this normal for a 1.5 year male panther? Or was he just holding it in for a week and finally got comfortable enough to let loose? Any opinions? It is also quite soft. Could this be because of softbodied worms?

There is nothing wrong with a 2 inch poo. The softness depends on how soft, and for how long. compare is it runny or just mushy. Do a healthy poo search, you will find lots of poo poo photos to compare.

2inch i would say is ok i have had my veiled not go for a week once and it was huge like 3-4 inches, way gross

That sounds normal, some chameleons hold it in for a while then release all that they got.

Cue Dave Weldon's epic poop photo! C'mon Dave - we need that pic posting again!

Amy went for 18 days without a poop last month! It's so much easier when they do it every couple of days. It's like she saves it up then drops it in the most difficult part of her cage for me to remove it from!

My 5 1/2 month girl has had crickets breeding in the viv a little bit (and fruit flies!) I cleaned them out so I could gutload and dust them properly, but she had her fill for a couple of weeks and the poop was not ladylike!
I think she's managed an inch and a half!

Unlucky, my little girl goes at least once a week and comes to the front, next to (or occasionally, in) the water bowl.

Ozzie is still a baby at 4 months old so I guess I am the one with the odd size Poo....lmao!

Water bowl?

 

[DavidBuchan]

I have a small water bowl. I just always have done, and I've seen my male drink from his....not seen the female drink from hers, but I so rarely see her drink or eat anyway.......they get plenty of misting but I'm often out in the middle of the day so they can always have some if they are thirsty. There's no problem her going in it, because I change it every day anyway when I do the morning mist.

I've seen others who's chameleons drank from water bowls. I was just curious because it's not the board standard.
