It is probably salt. Our cham did this when we first got him. After we switched to filtered water, we haven't seen it since.

Have you been seeing your drink any water?

No, but we spray her everyday.......

Is there two parts to her poop? And is the pee part really white or an orange color?

Do you have a drip system or is spraying the only water she gets?

Her poop looks normal...I have a total of 11 reptiles, so I am use to looking at there poop....just have never seen this on any of my cham's before......We spray her twice a day and I don't currently have a drip system going for her, I know I need to get one, but don't have the funds right now....

for a drip system, use a paper cup with a pinhole(s) poked in the bottom,make shur it hits upper leaves and cascades down over many more.something to catch the water,do not reuse. This is very nesesary,will work indefinatly.drip at LEAST
10-15 min.3 times a day. Dehydration WILL set in without drip!!
