Hey, my anole Geo was just like that. She adapted really well to captivity. Some anoles are just really laid back. The only time my anole is ever stressed is when she's hungry. Really. Almost never seen here stressed otherwise. Don't worry, you most likely just got a laid back anole.

yeah, she is starting to adapt. i think that she is really laid back because she is just so slow, and so calm... i was SO scared this morning becuz i had a crack in the corner between the lid and side of the tank (lid not shut all the way) and i thought she had escaped, but she was just sitting on the top of the screen looking at me wen i saw her. she couls have easily escaped, but she didnt... thanks for your response skater
