Weird "fuzz" coming from the nose!! Help!

[leolover]

For the past couple of days I have noticed this white spot on his face. He had just shed a few days ago so I thought that maybe it was just some left over skin, but this morning I woke up and he had that spot on his face so I decided to take him out and look at it. It was some discharge out of his nose. I brushed it off and put him back, then I just looked at him again and he has it out of the other nostrile!!! What is it and is it something that I need to be worried about???
He is a 4 month old Panther Chameleon. He has been eating well and active. The humidity is at about 40% and the temp is at 80-90 degrees, highest temp at basking spot. My tank and all my supplies came from Kammerflage Kreations and considered to top knotch.... so im told. I have live plants as well as fake vines and branches. I am feeding him crickets that I are dusted and using misting as a source of water. He is not dehydrated by the looks of his droppings. He has been pooping at least once a day. Please help me.

Possibly you are oversupplementing? Chams will discharge excess calcium out of their nostrils...

maybe?

That may very well be! I have been supplementing with "miner-all", "Herotivite" and "rep-cal" all at the same time. just learned recently that I am supposed to have the supplementing on a scheduale so I am now doing that which I just started yesterday. I am now only using one of those 3 everyday and switching so each is used twice a week. How long will it be before I see the discharge stop and is there anything else that is could possibly be??

the kammers have a goog suplament program that i use and it seem's to work very good. i think you can get it from there web page.

yes, that is what I am folowing now. I bought my chameleon from them as well and I have now switched to their supplementing program. Is that all that it could be, is it somehting that I need to be worried about?? Should I stop supplementing all together for a few days to let it all settle down??

Yes, you are oversupplimenting him. If hes old enough, a good shower to pump lots of fluids and hydration will help too. Lay off on the dusting for a few days before starting again with a modified schedule.

also when you supplement, you should only be able to see a very tiny amount of powde on each cricket. If you blow on the cricket, and you see some fly off, you've dusted them to much.

You don't need to dust every feeder.
Just a few of them.
Tiny, tiny, tiny bits of supplement!!!
The exception is Calcium without D3 (particularly for females)
