White crust on nose?

In the wild that's there way of retaining water and getting rid of the salt! What kind of water is he drinking? If its tap water like you drink you could switch to distilled water without all the minerals & heavy metals!

When I had veiled chams in 1999/2000 my males had the white deposits around the nostrils to & never was an issue for mine!

I believe the poster you are talking about is comparing it to when you accidentally shoot liquid out your nose. Like when you are drinking something and laugh, and the fluid is forced out through your nose.

And Im agreeing with you,thats why I compare the white crust in the nose as the calcium like the booger in the nose as milk,which is not the truth,im using the poster theory to explain that should not be in the case with dusting calcium causing white crust,as milk in the nose that DOESN'T cause in booger formation,hope this is a clear explanation to u.

Not really. There have been threads on this forum where people have mistaken the salt crust for excess calcium, and stopped using calcium supplements. This led to their animal developing MBD. I'm sure Dayna is just trying to make sure the OP ,and anyone else who reads this thread, gets the correct info so their animal doesn't suffer the same fate.
 
Never used anything but tap water that sat out over night and never had a big problem with salt (what we chameleon people call the stuff that comes out of their noses)...sonic don't think the content of water is what dies it.
 
Edit won't work again....
Salt should say snalt and sonic should read so I. :(:(:(:(
Can you tell I'm frustrated with edit not working???
 
Where can I get chameleon cocaine? Do they sell this at the pet store next to fish milk and blinker fluid?
