Hydration

[flaminglazer72]

Simple question. How can I tell if my cham is getting enough water? And what are the signs of dehydration?

When your chameleon goes to the bathroom there will be a fecal portion (brown) and urate portion. The urates should be white, which shows that they well hydrated. If the urates are orange/yellow that is a sign that they are not getting enough water. Good luck! This is a great place to get information and the community is very helpful!
