Pictures are kind of dark. Can you take him outside in the day light for some quick pics?

So, if you are only giving this supplement, immediately stop giving this to your chameleon. You need to be giving Calcium "without" vitamin D at every feeding, and Calcuim "with" Vit D only twice a month really. The spots you are seeing might be calcium deposits in the soft tissue after...

What type of supplementation are you using?

hard to say without pics...

Lighting - What brand, model, and types of lighting are you using? What is your daily lighting schedule? Reptilian 10 and it’s on an auto timer for 12 hours. And I don’t recall the other but I’ve always used it and got it at pet store. This is something you should look at. What do you use for UVB?
