thats fine, and its supposed to be white.

the poop is brown, the urate(pee) is white.
if its any other color, yellow or orange, the cham is dehydrated.

Thanks for the help . And I'll look you guys up on fb when I'm done with this. And right now what it's doing is opening its mouth. But he's really weak. Is that for it not getting enough water?

Opening of the mouth is one of two things:

too hot
respiratory infection

what is your basking temperature?

do you hear any wheezing, popping, clicking noises coming from the mouth>

He opened his his mouth only 2 times and it's 75. But no I havnt heard anything like that it only histed at the store when she took him out and bit me.

This is it's other eye. Is that normal? I bought him like that. Like I feel bad for him they had him like that in the pet store.

How ar eyou measuring that temp?

if thats the basking tmep (and not the air temp) the temps are way too low.

to measure basking, place gauge right on basking branch, (highest branch in cage)

if you are using the soo med crappy velcro gauge, its useless.

you should use a digitial thermometer.

No thats not normal.

This could be an eye infection, as the eyeball itself looks cloudy.
I think you should see a vet.

Is that why it doesn't eat? But do I look up exotic pet vet? And I don't understand how they could have chameleons like that because that's how his eye was when I got it

If hes sick, which i think he is, then yea, it would put him off food. and he probably cant see it really well anyway.

you need to just call vets in your area, and ask if they have cham experience.

ANd stores sell them becuase they are stupid. thats really the only explanation for it.

Thank for the help and I found a place close from me I'm going to call them and ask and I found you on fb I think. I appreciate the help he has gotten back to his color and is moving more from giving it water. The only thing is that it has to eat and it's eyes. And I'm going to get a better cage non-class.

do the shower thing twice a day, and thta should help some.

the vet will hopefully, help you figure out the issue,

if you are unsure of what the vet says, PM me from your phone while in the office, and i can futher assist you that way. I get messages to my phone and it notifies me.

not eating isnt a end of the world thing, many chams can go a few days without eating, its the water and the eyes that are the major issue here.
