What is this off-white blob I found in my pregnant cham's cage?

I have an adult Jackson's chameleon. She is about five and one-half months pregnant. This is her first pregnancy. She is quite large (fat and pregnant, I believe). She has always been a big girl since before I got her about 10 months ago. Today, while caring for the plants in my screen enclosures I found an off-white blob freshly deposited on a leaf. I know human women have a plug that is released just prior to giving birth. Could this be such a plug? Do you think this means she will have her babies soon? I will attempt to upload a picture of the whitish blob and a pic of my Big Girl. Thanks!



P.S. Am having trouble attaching photos so will send this message and try again to attach photos separately.

It looks like urates and extra water, your cham is really getting hydrated and drinking a lot of water

I agree, looks like a perfect fresh urate. Just what you want as she heads into dropping babies. Keep us posted on the babies.
