If those are signs of a uri i think my veiled has one. Right now he is on pancur for parasite's and is only on the 2nd week of a 4 week treatment. Do I wait or start the treatment for RI as well?

I would take him to a vet. I do think it's an URI but I don't think things like that should be diagnosed and treated based on an internet site...

ok i am worried about him
Do you think its a good idea to have him on two treatments at once? Also I found a vet does exotics that is open on sundays. I believe he has had a uri for a while but he does not show mucus or gapes. How long do uri's take to treat if caught in the early stage?

I don't know the answers to any of those questions. I do know that a vet with exotic experience is going to be your best bet for getting those answers.

Veileds are very hardy reptiles I just hope I haven't caught this too late.

Please let us know what happens. I know I get invested in every chameleon I read about here.
My experience is that chameleons are very resilient, for all they might be fragile, so "bouncing back" is definitely a very good possibility.

Update on him
He got baytril for his URI and they bill came to only $18 because my dad had a credit with them because they made a mistake on his bill for his dog's checkup. Also he was weighed and weighs 280 grams. Is that a good weight?
