Anoles
Anoles are a small - medium sized arboreal reptile ranging from just a few inches up to 22 inches. They range from North America - Asia. They are a very common reptile specie as they can be very affordable. They come in multiple different colors and through selective breeding; morphs are now available throughout the reptile hobby. Anoles range from climates that are hot with minimal shrubbery - very hot and damp rainforest climates. The most common anole being the green anole, they are often seen looking brown, as the pigments in the skin can lighten and darken depending on mood, stress and temperature.

How far can anoles jump?
Asked by Wiki User
Not sure in mph (miles per hour) or fps (feet per second). But I've had several, and they are faster than your hand that's for sure. If you want to keep them as pets holding is an absolute no! They will escape and out run you. If you have to remove them from the cage, make sure you apply pressure and have another inclosure ready to be closed as soon as you let go!
Do crickets attack anoles?
Asked by Wiki User
It depends how many crickets there is, if there is like 10, they may attack your anole but and if there is like 3 or 4, the crickets cannot harm you anole.
Do fence lizards get along with green anoles?
Asked by Wiki User
I have two anoles and 3 blue tailed skinks in a 29 gallon tank and they get along just fine. It's actually funny, because the anoles get more aggressive toward each other than they they ever have toward the skinks. I have a simple UV light in the hood of the tank and a low-powered heat rock. They all tend to cuddle on or near the heat rock. The anoles like to sit up high, so I have some foliage and a hammock for them to sit in. The anoles occasionally come down and will sit right on top of the skinks. As long as they are the same size, you shouldn;t have a problem.
Can a green anole live with a neon tree dragon?
Asked by Wiki User
I just bought a neon tree dragon(lizard) today at petco to live with my green anole and i asked the reptile lady at the store beforehand to make sure that they could and she told me that they should be able to since neither of them are aggressive, they aren't tooo much larger than one another, they eat the same things, and they also live in the same habitat type so i am just going to watch them to make sure that they dont fight or anything, but they should be good :)

What is the difference between geckos and anoles?
Asked by Wiki User
Chameleons are totally different from Green Anoles. For instance, the Chameleon can change to numerous colors, and the Anole can only change from green to brown. The Chameleon is also usually much bigger. And they look completely different.

It's probably not a good idea. Alligator lizards tend to feed on other lizards that are close to or greater than their own size.

What do you do to take care of green anole eggs?
Asked by Wiki User
Gently. They are very small and delicate. you can hold them but if they don't like it they can bite. Watch out! When they are green, they might jump off your hand. They are very still when brown and that color could mean they are too cold. Sooo to sum it up, be kind to them.

Anoles are quite small and fast so they are hard to handle but are quite easy to keep. Not the best first time Lizards, though, but they should make good pets for kids if given proper care.

How do you know if your anole is healthy?
Asked by Tdsh1000
You know when your Anole is dead when it stops moving completely and when it decomposes (which means,when its skin is coming off).

What do baby green anoles eat?
Asked by Wiki User

How to take care of baby brown anole?
Asked by Wiki User
Most of their water will be consumed through their food. They may lick the water off the sides of the tank. You can offer a small amount of water in a bowl, but take caution not to leave the bowl in the tank. The high temperatures, coupled with the water, will raise the humidity.
Mist the enclosure twice a day, as they will drink the mist off the leaves. You can also use a drip system.
Keep the temperature during the day around 82 degrees F to 86 degrees F. At night, the temperature should be kept around 75 degrees F to 80 degrees F. A broad-spectrum heat bulb, and a flourescent bulb should suffice for the Brown Anole.
HousingBrown Anoles do not need much space, although you do not want to cramp them. A simple 2' x 2' x 2' enclosure should work well, using a glass aquarium with screen top, or full-screen. A simple substrate of potting soil or peat moss mixed with play sand works well. You should include real plants in the enclosure for them to climb on, as well as a few branches.
BreedingThese lizards breed in the late spring to early summer months. They will normally lay 2 eggs per clutch, and many clutches throughout the summer months. Make sure to include leaves or some other vegetation on the ground, as they will lay the eggs underneath. Allow 60 - 90 days for the eggs to hatch. It is recommended that you remove the babies after they hatch, or before for incubation. In many cases, feeder insects and even the adults will eat the young.
Above is a good care guide.a few more details is shown below
Anoles will eat crickets as a usual diet. "gut loading" your crickets(keeping crickets and feeding them nutritial foods such as fruits or vegies before feed them to your pet)is a great idea for anoles.i've heard some people gave their anoles "peach paste" which sounds healthy but I dont know where to get it.
To encourage breeding,hibernation WILL be required.In the summer no lights should be turned on any hours of the day and feeding should be limited to once every 2-3 days.Sounds harsh but it is required.
