He looks healthy over-all.

I agree that he looks a little dehydrated, but he looks a little scrawny as well. That said, his tummy definitely looks full! So he should bulk up soon.

How long have you had him?

what are you keeping him in? size? misting how often? You should fill out the how to ask for help so we can give you helpful advice on anything you might have that need to be tweaked.

On the dehydration part i mist his cage but he isnt to fond of it...at times i will see him go up to the dripper and drink but.its not common

Hes in a 30 gallon cage, i mist him about 4-5 times a day, hes always climbing everywhere all day

Yes, most chams will shy away from being misted/sprayed.
(I would too )
I believe this to be a natural response, as they seem to like to adjust their position, according to where the water is coming from. (I presume they do this to not drown)
The water you mist with, even if its heated, will act to cool them off.
Since they are cold blooded creatures, this is bound to "ruin their world" a bit.

What type of cage? (screen, terrarium, aquarium?)

EDIT: My jackson will always shy away from water at first, but after a few seconds, and some strategic repositioning, she will sit and drink. They just freak a bit at first.

Aluminum mesh i think

Ok good deal. You said 30gallon, and wanted to make sure it wasnt a fishtank.

that might be a little small. i recomend getting a 24x24x48 all screen. the 30gal cheap mesh is kinda cruddy but good as an outdoor sun cage. i have a 60gal that good for outdoor use but was a bleh dark cage. they like light

I have no idea how big "30 gallons" is
