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.

Can you catch a wild brown anole and breed it then keep it as a pet?
Well depending on certain terms and conditions, like if it is very small like a new born lizard, then you could, but if it is large then you may not be able to.
How many anoles are there in the world?
No human on Earth really knows that because they multiply every day as they hatch in different parts of the world.
No. Geckos are classified under the families Gekkonidae andGekkota. Anoles are classified under Polychrotidae. They are most closely related to iguanas; however they are the second-best climbing lizards next to geckos and the second-best colour-changing lizards next to chameleons (Chamaeleonidae).
Is it normal for enole not to eat a day?
It is normal for an anole to skip a meal here and there, but most of these lizards will eat every day. You can try changing the food that you are offering to the anole to encourage him or her to eat.
Will sugar water hurt an American chameleon or Carolina Anole?
No, it will not harm them, but it also won't help them. Green anoles eat a variety of small insects, and may drink flower nectar occasionally. In captivity, they should be provided with a setup that is 80F with a 90F basking spot during the day. (It can drop to 70F at night). The humidity should be around 80%. Water should be provided with a dripper, or by spraying. A UVB reptile light is necessary.
Green anoles should be offered small insects--crickets are the staple. Flightless fruit flies are also a good food item. Mealworms are not suitable. They should be 1/4 inch or smaller, and should be dusted with a calcium supplement. Once a week, this should be a supplement containing vitamin D3. One feeding per week should be dusted with a vitamin powder containing preformed vitamin A, instead of calcium.
Feed every day for juveniles, and every other day for adults. Feed as many insects as they will eat in 15 minutes, and remove all of the leftovers so they will not bite or harass the lizards.
Green anoles may be given a small portion cup of peach baby food once a week as a treat. They may be given Repashy crested gecko diet, or day gecko diet on a daily basis, as an additional food item, if they will accept it. (If they don't go for it immediately, offer the peaches first...if those are accepted, then mix in the day gecko diet in increasing amounts over time, until they're eating the MRP instead of peaches).
It is unknown whether green anoles can be maintained strictly on a day gecko or crested gecko meal replacement powder, but it is possible that they might be.

How do you get your anole to like you faster?
You wont get your anole to "like you faster". You need to make sure that it gets used to its surroundings and of course you. Give it time!
No but they do lay them together. its best that the young does not stay with the adult because there are cases of the adult eating the young.
How many babies can a anole have?
Anoles typically lay between 2 to 15 eggs per clutch, depending on the species and environmental conditions. Female anoles can produce multiple clutches throughout the breeding season, which may last several months. Overall, a single female can potentially have dozens of offspring in a year.
Can a Chinese dragon and a anole live in the same cage?
No ! They would never encounter each other in their natural habitat ! Also - they need totally different living conditions ! Additionally - Chinese Water Dragons prey includes of small reptiles !
Do anoles urinate or defacate a lot?
Anoles, like many reptiles, do not urinate frequently in the way mammals do. Instead, they excrete uric acid as a paste, which conserves water. They do, however, defecate regularly, especially if they are well-fed and active. Overall, their waste production is relatively low compared to mammals.
Do anoles interact with each other?
well if they crap on u then no. i once had one and he bit me so i chunked him in the celling fan. and off with his head. he didn't live much longer. only 3 more years until a tragic smoothy making incident.

Where would an escaped anole go?
Anywhere it could physically fit ! It would instinctively find a hole of crevice that it could fit into - so that it feels safe.
Can an anole male reproducing with a girl anole accidentally kill her?
Yes, but this is extremely rare. An overly rough, large male might bite a female fatally, as the males will often grab the female by the neck or side while breeding. More common is for a few small cuts to be left, which can be dabbed with betadine on a q-tip to help prevent infection.
Does it hurt when an anole bites?
I imagine it would depend on where exactly they bite you, but generally no, their bite does not hurt. I have lived in Florida my entire life and have caught these lizards and hung them from my ears and my nose. I would just put their mouth near my ear and once they bite down they don't let go. So they will just hang there.
The larger brown anole can pinch a little when you try to pry them back off of you, but that is only because they are a little more aggressive and won't let go.
