Hi ::
I have three green anoles in a 55-gal planted terrarium. For the last few weeks, I've noticed that at least two of them have odd-looking whitish deposits near one or both of thier nostrils. Is this a respiratory infection? Am I feeding them too much calcium supplemement, and it's coming out of thier noses? Help!

They are salt deposits. That is how the excrete wastes. It is normal.

All I know is that they are a waste product, completely normal.
