Where can I look for my chams poops???

[PascalsWorld]

From my understanding now I can tell whether or not my chameleon is hydrated or not by checking his BM's. I got this little dude 2 days ago and he seems to be doing very well. His colors are beautiful, he eats, sleeps during the night, and is remaining quite active during the day. I JUST CANT FIND HIS POOPS!

Maybe he hasn't pooped yet? Maybe I cant see them? I don't know
His eyes aren't sunken in so im sure he's not dehydrated but I just want to be fully sure he's okay. Please let me know!

There will be two parts: the white part (urate) and the brown part (feces). Both give you different information about your cham's health. A lot of chams sort of pick a "spot" or two to use as the bathroom, so once you find where your little guy likes to go, finding them should be a lot easier.

The urate should be cohesive and white with a small slime wrapping. Little orange crystals at one end are okay as long as the rest of the urate is white. If the urate is yellow or orange, those are signs that your cham is dehydrated. Ideally, you don't want it to get to that point, but it's an easy way to monitor overall hydration. Look for the white part on leaves - it's sticky.

The feces should be cohesive, dark brown, and moist and look like a little brown jelly bean. If you smoosh it, it should have very little smell and few to no bug chunks. A strong smell may be an indication of parasites. Whole bug parts can be due to parasites, illness, or dehydration. I find that the brown part rarely sticks to leaves, so look for it in pots of plants or on the ground.
