    Green Anoles

    What do you guys think of them?
    Anyone have/had them.
    I am thinking about 1/2, in a 10-20 tank.

    Definitely fun lizards. High tank recommended, will need UVB, one male per tank max (unless it's really big). Had green anoles once, almost bought browns, but luckily I invested in my first garter instead.

    I didn't know there were green and brown, I thought they just turned green and brown......Duh any way they are fun to have and are very fast, I had I think five in a 10gallon, they love a little hide and twigs and stuff of that nature, as for food they love crickets, and meal worms, but I think the meal worms are more like a treat.........they are kool so go for it................

    Brown anoles are a different species, Anolis sagrei. But they look very different from green anoles that have just turned brown.

    its really hard to know if its a brown anole or green anole when your catching them in the wild because the green ones turn dark brown or brown when scared, sick, or stressed

    Green anoles were one of the first store-bought reptiles I ever kept, when I was pretty young. had them in a 20g tank on my dresser. Pretty cool when they stick their dewlaps out.
    I was actually thinking today, wouldnt it be awesome to build a monster display cage, like 6 ft tall x 6 foot wide x 3 foot deep, and outfit it with awesome reptile lighting and misters and tons of branches, and put a whole bunch of green anoles in it?
    I bet they would be very active and fun to watch in such a large cage, and probably breed well. Then you could get one of those really long green vinesnakes(in a separate cage) to feed the offspring to.
