not growing

I have two chameleons and they were the same size when I got them. They were in the same cage for about 4 weeks and then I separated them when one started to hiss at the other one. Both in their own enclosure now, same light, same water, same food, same enclosure. But the one little girl just is not growing. She does not seem to be dehydrated and she eats crickets, her pee is white and poop is black. Not sure what to do about her. I just feel like I am failing her in some way. Is it possible she is just a smaller veiled chameleon?

My little girl Minty is very strong when I hold her, she eats her dusted crickets and she likes to hang upside down. I put a piece of cardboard between their enclosures so they cannot see each other but I just don't know why she is not growing.

She could technically be a runt. Are you dusting? But it's also possible she has coccidia or a parasite that the other girl is better at fighting off while she has a worse immune system.
 
they are separate and there is a piece of cardboard blocking their views of each other. Yes I am dusting her crickets, I have some with d3 and some without, that is use on her crickets.
 
Are you giving her a multivitamin at all? Have you gotten a fecal tested recently?
