I used to catch lizards for him until a little side blotch (fed when Wally was a baby) sat in my hand, latched onto one of my fingers and looked me in the eye. I couldn't kill another one, nor could I find enough around my house to feed as many as he needed. I found only one supplier to help me and if he quits, I'm in trouble. I've only seen anoles sold online and don't know if he'd eat them.
As far as the other food items mentioned .... where does one get snakes and repitle eggs and such?
As far as substrat ... I'd thought about using some of my desert sand for him but feared bringing in mites and the like so I use aspen. He glides around in it making tunnels and such, and spends a lot of time on the surface as well. But likes the cold end the most. I think this weird for a desert snake.
I like how you think, and treat your snakes. If you just keep them in little boxes like others I've seen ... I think that is cruel. I have mine set up like a desert landscape for Wally.
Again, thanks for all of your words of advice.
