Anyone ever heard of kidney stones in chameleons because of all the calcium we feed them ??? Thoughts discussion

Calcium metabolism in basking herps is very different than it is for mammals. Maybe one of our vets can answer this...I doubt it happens without other kidney problems going on. I wonder if its also tied to longevity...chams live a very short life compared to many mammals who end up with kidney stones.
