I had a green anole years ago! she had a bit of a crabby attitude, but she was MY little crab :D

I didn't think you'd keep one as a pet; I tried to raise one from a hatchling but... It didn't turn out well, set it free surprisingly saw it again (it had a scar from one of my cats). I used to have a Gecko, but she unfortunately died last year. Made her a grave and all in my Backyard, miss her but it's quite a bit of work keeping reptiles.

I initially had caught a TINY one, little itty bitty brown anole, probably just a recently hatchling (she wasn't much bigger than my fingernails). her and another one had come in on a shipment of plants from florida. she was super friendly, and loved to eat fruit flies. she would hunt them and jump around her tank catching them. she also liked to hang upside down from the ceiling of her tank. i could put my finger up to the tank, and she would come running over. I had her for 16 days before she passed away. I got my crabby green anole after that. i loved both of them, but i found that cold blooded animals are too fragile and high maintenance for me :c

Yeah, I understand that. Parents used to own Snakes, did forever but they've gotten older so not their thing anymore. My gecko was somewhere in the 15+ years range, loved her to pieces.
