Jackson Chameleon spots

Hi All

Please help me figure out what could be causing these brown bumps on my chameleons back leg and tail. He is about 8 months old I believe and they started showing up as he started shedding. With each shed they seem to be a little bigger. He is in a screen/glass cage. i put some glass on it to help keep humidity high. He is set up with a heat lamp, a basking spot and a UV lamp. I spray cage regularly about every 4 hours. The spots don't seem to affect his attitude. He is eating and drinking very well and is not lethargic at all. Any suggestions or answers would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!

"I spray cage regularly about every 4 hours."
That's basically 3x a day... I'd do atleast 4 and make it last a few minutes at a time.

The spots kinda look like a (cricket) bite but since you mention they are getting bigger I'd take him to the vet in case it's a skincondition or.w/e that needs treatment.
 
Definitely take him to a herp vet. Can't tell from the pic what the spots are, but they are getting worse, not better. Also, did you take the pic at night or daytime? If he's sitting with eyes shut during the day there is more going wrong.
