Howdy Pattapong,

Cage Type - Aluminium cage have net around 50*50*100cm (20"x20"x40")
That size is probably ok for your 10 month-old Veiled. He may benefit from having a bigger enclosure at some point (24"x24"x48 is typical).

Lighting - have daily light in 10-11.00 some time have the Heat lamp for
Temperature - around 30-34 (86F-93F) That may be too hot. He may be better at a skin temp of (90F) of about 32C max.
How and where are you measuring the temperature? The best way to know about his temperature is with a low-cost infrared temp meter and measure his skin temp directly with it. What is the air temp just outside of his enclosure? (Example of infrared temp gun: http://www.tempgun.com/main.html)

Plants - I use live plant
Placement - out side my room that have nothing
Does he have direct access to unfiltered (absolutely no glass or plastic between him and the sun) sunlight during the day? If not then what UVB light source do you use?

Location - Thailand

Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - Veild Chameleon 10 months male and 10 months long
Where did you get him? Breeder? Pet store?

Handling - 2-3 time per week
Feeding - Cricket Wax worm (gutload with Whole bread and some fruits and calcium every time I feed)
How many crickets and waxworms do you feed him every day/week? It looks like you may be dusting too often if that ReptiCal is the one with vitamin D3 in it.

Supplements - Dust calcium of Repti cal (With Vitamin D3?)
Watering - Spray and drop
Do you see him drink?

Fecal Description - 2 week agos
History - Any previous information about your cham that might be useful to others when trying to help you.
Current Problem - his poop look like jelly like I told before above
Testing for parasites is a good idea. He could easily be carrying parasites that, under stress conditions, could be exploding in population.

Post lots of photos of him and his enclosure.
