Possible Tape or Hook Worm in CB Panther?

[sleestack]

Hello all,

I'm a little worried about my male panther, he has white/yellow stringy material hanging from the opening of his bum. He is a CB chameleon that I purchased and raised from 2 months old. Could he have a tape or hook worm? Here are some pictures of the questionable stringy stuff.

I also seem to remember reading somewhere about hemipenal sheds which looked a lot more like what I see from my panther but it is probably just the "plug" material also.

Last year, I gently pulled out a plug from a friend's panther and it was pretty big around and well over 1-2 inches long. It must have been in there quite a while and was probably irritating too.
