Other day i got 6 California Green Anoles (1 male, 5 females) too put in with my tree frogs and today i noticed the male mateing with one of the females and ive been watching him and he is trying too mate with all the females in there some are letting him some are running off.. Can anyone help me with what i should do with the eggs as i know they will eat there young.. I do have a proper incubator with thermostat and everything on it from when i used to breed snakes.. But im not too sure on what temp the incubator needs too be and what i should put the eggs in and soo on.. Soo could anyone give me a little advice please.. I would get advice from the internet but i dont always believe what i see on there would rather get infomation from someone that as done this before.. Thanks ..
Can anyone help at all as i want to get the Incubator setup and working for when the eggs are here as i dont know when they will lay them as they all came from same person soo they might of already of been pregnant
ok thanks ill get the incubater ready and setup tomorrow and the reptile shop i got them from said they was california green anoles but i just tell everyone there green anoles lol
How come all of my anoles prefere to hang off the mesh shield i have around the uv bulb ? they never really use rest of viv its only my frogs that use all of viv
I cant answer that since I don't know. They probably don't like the frogs and thus stay away, when I had greens they used every bit of their cage, a 55 gallon for three females and one male.
they are fine with the frogs the frogs sometimes sit at side of them on the light or the plant right at side of light the anoles sit there too and frogs do sometimes lol
the viv is 3ft long just over 1ft tall and over 1ft wide ill be taking some pictures soon as this week i get my medium exo terra waterfall and a few live rainforrest plants for the viv soo it looks as real as i can get it lol :2thumb: hopefully it will look good when its done
To be honest mate, this sound too small for six carolinensis AND tree frogs.
Also, anoles are arboreal in habit and live their lives hanging at 3-6ft above the ground on vertical tree trunks. One adult male will have a few females/juvenilles hanging around and he will defend his territory fiercely.
Therefore, anoles need a large, arboreal (vertical/tall) viv with plenty of room as they are quite active little lizards.
For six anoles (no frogs) I would be looking at a 3-5ft tall viv, at least a foot deep, ideally 2+ and 2-3ft wide.
Sorry to have to be the bearer of bad news as you're so excited about your new tank, but 3 x 1 x 1 is just not a suitable enclosure for 6 green anoles.
and i think i will order that viv you have shown me next week and put a large exo terra water fall in it and more live plants and lots of long fake plants and jungle vine hangin down
I answered on your other thread, but bothrops has covered it all nicly.
I'm glad to hear you resizing the viv.
