It’s just threw me off. It was all orange too. Unless orange urates are a symptom of something other than dehydration.
Just wanted some opinions, I will keep looking and see if they continue to be orange or if it was a one time deal.
Asking basically if it’s normal to have orange urates after not pooping for a couple days.
Seeing as how he drinks quite a bit, always white urates (apart from this one time) and his eyes are not sunken in the least bit.
Quick question,
My little guys urates are always white, I’ve never seen any signs of yellow or orange. He hadnt pooped in a few days, and yesterday when he did, his urate was completely orange?
I have previously filled out the husbandry sheet for him.
Me too! It’s on Wednesday. But don’t think he will find out much. As our “exotics” vet isn’t very knowledgeable.
I took my Ambilobe and she did not do any tests or tell me anything helpful unfortunately:(
Update.
Her mouth is starting to close now, she’s in shed?
I did read somewhere that chameleons have their mouth open to break out of old skin.
She also doesn’t have any of her big girl colours. So I guess I’ll try and explain to him about feedings.
Also for the sunken eyes. Her urates are...

Friend of a friend sent this picture of his chameleon. He noticed the black a week ago. He said he is waiting for his vet appt. also noticed her mouth slightly open. He said she does not close it at all even when she sleeps. He said there is also little black dots on her gums now
Any help would...
Well. Took my little dude to the vet. Big waste of time. She didn’t do anything for me. She said she wasn’t an expert on Chams (which I assumed) and had to go search things on the internet. I did bring a poop sample.
Although he seems to be doing better. I seen him eat for the first time today...
