Green Anoles

[Stefan-A]

I haven't caught either in the wild, but green anoles that turn brown generally don 't have the stripes and markings the brown anoles have.

There's no mistaking one for the other

are they supposed to have mesh cages?
I would get a regular 10 or 20 gallon tank, but I was thinking,
Petland Discounts - Product Details

I try to get both when I go down to the Keys :]

Heh, I was informed by a botany expert at the science fair that if you live in the US and have a Lowes or Home Depot nearby, that they ALWAYS get anoles and geckos, mole crickets, and other animals in on their live plants. Why spend the money at a pet store when you could get them for free with a little searching? :P

Also, brown anoles have red/orange dewlaps, while green anoles have red/pink dewlaps. ;D

[osubeaver22]

can you answer my question please?

[Zephyr]

I would think that anoles would prefer a warm, aerated environment. Just as long as there is a humid hide, or some place for them to get moist as necessary. I do know one thing: You want it aerated, but not dry.

[osubeaver22]

so would that cage above be ok?

I would think that the mesh cages would work fine,as long as you provide the proper lighting and heat, although you may need to mist them a bit more often. They do cut down on your visibility a bit, but also make the animals feel more secure inside.
