Is it unusual for chams to poo and one time and pee at another like we do. Cause I know he is getting some water because I douse his silkworms with water and mist him for 9 minutes 3 times a give showers every other day yet everytime I see him poop in the morning there are no urinates attatched. Is this a sign of dehydration? Or is he just peeing at a different time?

hi there, I have never had any of my chams pee and poo at different times. Stitch has some HUGE poops and If I find the poo I'll find the urates somewhere close by, same with Rana, although when I got her, her poos were the size the of rice, now they are the size of small peanuts! Are you sure the urates aren't stuck somewhere that you can't see them?

I find that once in a great while Luna will only have solids but it is rare and mostly when she is dehydrated and not eating much (seems like ALWAYS these days!)

If it is consistent then you may need to reassess your setup, but from what I recall, you are doing OK with it. as feenei said, you may just not be seeing it - feel free to post a pic of your poop (well, not YOUR'S!) it won't be the first! lol!
