Incubation can only last so long so arrivals should stop by the end of the month or October at worst. Longest incubation wild guess that I've read is from the Smithsonian saying 60-90 days.The one I caught last night jumped out of one of the early August pots which doesn't prove that he just hatched from it especially with him being bigger than one I know is a month old. Perhaps he has been looking for food there from the beginning. Does the sexual differentiation start so young? Morphman pointed to Canadart forum recently on another thread so I'm there too. If I'm going to have a family of Anoles they had best be upscaled into a vivarium. They say that they share space with Green Tree Frogs in the wild. I'm thinking that it might be best to stay away from Herp forums since they keep saying that raising Anole hatchlings is rarely successful. I'll get my advice from elsewhere then thanks.

I've decided to call it 5 1/2. So far six were found but the one found 2nd has disappeared. She was first found sticking her head out from under a cabinet and was once found on top of her terrarium so habeas corpus is invoked. I've been finding very nice live-foods people. Substitutions and freebies have meant that a fair bit of the food is much larger than all of the babies combined. The hornworms are pretty things but if a few go to cocoons the rest will likely go to my fish. Few of my plants could manage more than the flightless flies or springtails. Do Utris eat springtail larvae?

6 1/2. One I am concerned about has twice been seen to lose her footing while going for a fly and then lay trembling on her back for a minute or more. Is this a thing with anoles or is there a way to ease her stress?
Dr. Goggle says: dehydration. So have spritzed everything with an electrolyte rich water.
