I have kept green anoles for years now and have decided to take it up a step...Knight anoles. I was wondering if you could tell me the basic setup for these lizards as well as their diet.

Thanks in advance!

Here is the one that i found to be the most comprehensive.

This caresheet says to stay away from mealworms, however, i have been told that mealworms are fine as the main meal for these guys. They just need a lot of them.

I agree with staying away from meal worms, most places that raise them use growth hormones. Knights will eat anything, fruits to flowers to veggies to pinkies, mine love watermeleon and banana's and plums and figs. Make sure the cage is tall they love to climb and hide out in the top of the cage close to the lights and they need hidding space at the top of the cage. I have a huge screen cage with "how ghetto" a fan cover hanging from the sides of the cage, they lay on it and bask and the crickets dont get on them there. If you go with screen remember crix will chew through it so make sure you get a roll of duct tape lol
