New Veiled Cham, White spots. Normal shedding or possible fungal infection?

[Viv]

Got my little veiled Yoshi about a week ago now. He's about 3months old. Worried about some dry white spots of skin that have started appearing on his face and body. Here's a pic so you can see what I mean -

Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - Veiled, ~3months old
Handling - As little as possible. Had to take him out once after doing some research on this forum and finding out most of what the store gave me wasn't so good for him.
Feeding - Release about 9-12 crickets/day into his enclosure. He generally munches them all down within a few minutes. Crickets have been given a variety of carrot, apples and oranges. I change their food every other day minimum.
Supplements - calcium carbonate without D3 every day, Calcium with D3 and multivit once so far and will be every two weeks after.
Watering - Misting 3-4 times daily. occasionally use a cup as a dripper, lasts about 15 mins at most however. Mist from handheld spray bottle until enclosure is drenched. Have seen him drink from dripper, lick plants and also lick the walls of the enclosure (which is pretty hilarious XD)
Fecal Description - Droppings seem normal. White urates, dark brown faeces. Looks almost identical to the examples of healthy droppings in the poop 101 thread on this site.
History - Silly woman in the store dropped the box with him in it when we bought him.

Cage Info:
Cage Type - Exo Terra glass, 450x450x600. Mesh top.
Lighting - Household 40W flourescent bulb, Reptiglo 10.0 UVB. Lights go off around midnight and on again around 9.30am.
Temperature - Basking spot is 77-82F during the day, lowest temperature in cage is around 70F. When I wake in the morning the lowest temp is around 65F. This all according to a komodo thermohygrometer combo which I'm honestly not super confident in...
Humidity - humidity lows around 50 highs around 60 Just misting.
Plants - Just plastic plants right now. Hard to find a live plant for such a small enclosure. Suggestions?
Placement - on a cabinet, cage floor approximately 2 feet from the ground level. Not near any fans. Fair amount of people moving nearby but we try to stay around 3 feet from the cage at most times so as not to disturb him. Not sure what his range on detecting movement is.
Location - UK.

Looks to me like he's starting to shed.

That's what I was hoping After finding out how awful the store bought setup was I've been so stressed and worried by every little thing that he does.

It's awful when you think you've been given professional advice only to find out you know nothing at all. I just want him to be happy and healthy.

To be honest, in my opinion, this forum website is the only way to get real, professional information about Chameleons in the US (or some other places in the world, as I know some people are from Asia, Britain, etc.).

I wouldn't totally disregard information I'm given at most pet stores, but in my experience, most of the information they give is either totally incorrect or partially incorrect. I've never found incorrect information on this website from any of the site's Senior Members and almost all regular Members.

You've come to the right place to get your questions answered

No real change in the spots. Surely he should have shed by now if that's what it was?

e/ also is it me or is he starting to look a little dehydrated. Saw him drinking today but maybe it isn't enough?

Veils are tricky. They can vary their shape and colors from day to day. Stick to a schedule and routine. This will help before freaking out, unnecessarily. Mine drove me crazy at first, always changing. Eventually, you will come to learn his patterns and will know when real issues arise. Cheeky little buggers.

Thanks. I've had reptiles before but chams are terrifying They get stressed pretty easy and you can really tell. They have such a vast array of behaviour it's fascinating but also scary when you see them doing something they haven't done before.
