poop question

[Siejuban]

I got my chameleon 2 weeks ago, it is a pygmy leaf chameleon. I found out something curious, it drops its poop only on one certain spot in the terrarium, is that normal, since I didn't find any poop from anywhere except that spot.

btw, what are those white stuff on the poop? I read it shows the hydration of the chameleon, but what are they?

Some chams will pick a particular spot to do their business in. its normal.
As for the whtie stuff, its called urate, its a cham version of pee.
If it is white, the cham is well hydrated, if it is yellow or orange, your cham needs more water.
