Feeder lizards?

Which lizard species is best to breed as a feeder lizard? I am wondering because I recently got a beautiful Asian vine snake and I want to make sure that the little guy has plenty of lizards to eat!

Anoles, virtually everyone I know of uses anoles.

I have vines. I feed mine anoles and house geckos.

Anoles and house geckos all the way. From what I've heard, the babies aren't that easy to take care of when you get them to breed though. When I had mine, I would just buy like 10 anoles for $20 and throw them in, feed them crickets, then buy some more in a couple months.

Re: Feeder lizards?

once you have the snake settled and feeding regular,if its not too much trouble and it won't stress the snake.....

could you post some feeding pictures please...

i think it would be very interesting,keeping lizard eating snakes

i hope to one day keep,the known to be cannibalistic Black Headed Pythons

i find it very interesting,how diverse a range of prey snakes will take

cheers shaun
