I imagine keeping a breeding cage for anoles wouldn't be hard especially if I bought the pack pre-bred with just a little maintenance. I could feed them the meal worms and crickets I buy my tarantulas. I would say breed mice but they're probably dirty as hell.

Breeding your own feeder anoles would reduce chance for parasites but sure would be a lot of work. May I suggest house geckos instead? I've bred them before but the problem was the adults attacked each other. Honestly, I'd just buy them and freeze them for 30 days before using and hope for the best.

I have two frozen lizards right now. She pooped again this morning and I don't expect her to eat for at least a few more days. So heres her feeding success...
1. frozen mouse too big for her. but she DID TRY
2. Live mouse too big and she thinks its a predator so she rattled her tail. This is two bad experiences with mice.
3. She ate a lizard that was skinnier but about as long as the rat without issues.
I want to use the frozen baby lizards (much smaller than what she ate) to scent up frozen pinkies since these pet stores are too much ****ing pussy to sell live ones.

For the moment the plan is to get her to like frozen mice because I really don't know how long it'll be before I can make it to the place that sells live pinkies.




I wonder since the lizards are so small should I warm them both up out of the freezer and bunch them together so she sees it as a bigger meal? (in the instance that I'm feeding her the lizards instead of the mouse).


Freezing them also cures the parasite problem.


You asked WHAT I'm trying to feed, here she is, a miami phase corn snake:

Edit: Fixed the net than caught another bigger lizard. She's just not hungry. If the lizard doesn't vanish in her cage in a few hours I'll freeze him
