Fresh poop--healthy???

[Haven27]

Hey guys,
MoJo just dropped a good one just a minute ago. I was here to hear it hit the bottom of his terrarium and took a pic immediately. Can anyone tell me if it looks good? I know there is a bit of yellow in his urate, but that has been his norm even before I got him. I've seen him drink and mist him several times a day. My main concern is the actual poop part of it. Any comments appreciated!! Also, just now noting him going to the bottom of his unit and eating his shed skin... I know my geckos do that, but do chameleons as well????

Yes poop looks good! I have not seen any of my chameleons eat their shed, but I have read about other member's chameleons doing it.

Oh, thank you! I've been so concerned. He eats well and drinks well and goes all over his unit and has great spunk, but I still worry. And I did do a little research and it isn't too uncommon for them to eat their shed, which is kind of cool to think he could recognize it when their was quite a bit of plant debris laying at the bottom as well!! I cleaned out the plant debris and left his skin for his enjoyment. Whatever keeps the little guy happy as can be!
