These tiny, neat little lizards with the intense black eyes have often suffered the fate of goldfish, as they have been marketed by pet shops as cheap, easy care, insect eating reptiles. In order to keep green anoles thriving in their new habitat, pet owners must approach their husbandry with care and respect. Philippe de Vosjoli's Green Anoles provides the precise information necessary to reach that goal in a single, expert written anole care book.

This trusted Advanced Vivarium Systems title offers complete information about housing, feeding and nutrition, diseases and disorders, and breeding as well as how to set up naturalistic vivaria for one or more anoles or a community of anoles and compatible species.

Inside this beginner-friendly guide, you'll learn all about the characteristics and behavior, natural history, and anatomy of green anoles, all of which is critical information for a keeper to better understand the needs of their pet. As pets, green anoles are best kept in their habitat and not handled, so the setup of a beautifully landscaped vivarium with proper lighting, heat, humidity, ventilation, and substrate is key. You'll also find a list of resources and a helpful index.
