The white part is called the urate, reptiles do not pee, they just poop a solid type of urine. If its white that means the cham is hydrated good, yellow means its not getting sprayed enough and orange is very dehydrated.
 
I see in the picture you have a water bowl, chameleons do not drink from sitting water, they will only drink water from rain or in captivity, sprayed water. I would recommend investing in a mistking system. Sitting water is a breeding cite for bacteria. You should spray the chameleon a minimum of three times a day for about 20 seconds or so. If you have any questions about how to care for them even small little things I can help you out.
