So my new Cham who just came in has orange poo. I think he is dehydrated but he won't drink off of the leaves when I spray them down...what should I do??
 
The orange urates are a sign of dehydration. You could try spraying him for a little longer to try and stimulate drinking!! Maybe a few other people will have advice as well!:)
 
Run a dripper and mist a few times a day. Some people don't ever see their chams drink.

Ever since I moved my guy to his big cage a few months ago his poo has been a little orange (It was pure white before). I see him drink everyday but its never turned back to how it was
 
you say just came in, as in how long ago? and also what type of cham. as stated orange poo in a sign of dehydration, u can up misting or a shower is always good.
but if he is new, he may just be streessed from the trip and require a day to relax before he has a big ole drink.
 
how orange a little or alot my guy ive seen dink 2 times n the 2 months ive had him and his is niicce and white. if its a veiled like mine u may not see him drink ever! showers are a good way to hydrate clean ur shower and put him on a plant in the shower point the head at the wall so it doesnt spray him but the mist produced from the spray can hit him sit with him dont leave it for like 20 mins or soo may stimulate him to drink id say especially if he was shipped its just stress causing him not to drink, hope i helped a little keep us posted!
 
I'll get pics and get back wu. It's his third day here. He is a veiled Cham I'd say 2 months old. He also doesn't bask in the light very much and pretty much has stayed in one spot all day today
