primebizzel28 Oct 17, 2004 10:10 PM

How long will my anoles last without eating. im in college and there in my dorm i went home friday. had someone to take car of them. he came in the room to feed them and all the crickets were eatin by thousands of ants. no lie. and my anoles havent eatin since i feed them each 3 mid sized crickets each. i have no car to go to the pet store untill atleast tuesday. im trying to fined some flies to feed them. but mostly a ride to altoona pet store. so is there real danger to them. or is it normal in nature for them to go a few days without eating?

They will probably be ok for a few days, as long as they are getting water. They will be very hungry when you can get crix for them, so be sure they don't gorge themselves or they might throw them back up.
