Hello.
I just read one of your earlier posts in which you mention feeding anoles to your dragon. Is this something you do regularly? How many can they eat at once?(I'd assume just one due to not only expense, but also size and common sense.) I'm just inquiring b/c as you know my female has been eating little other than pinkies as of late. At this point I'll try anything regardless of cost. Crickets would be ideal, but if anoles will work, well, what the hey?!

well all frillies are different, but my female LOVES thim. she runs,jumps,and will chase thim all over the cage to get one!! Anoles are very costly to feed every day; but were i live i just go out and catch thim, but if you live in a neighborhood i would NOT do this, but you can go somewhere that there are no people just don't feed thim any that look like they are thin, becouse they could have parasites. mine will eat as miny as i will through in there(2 or 3)but mine will eat other things, so i give thim anoles as a weekly treat.
BE CAREFUL, THEY ARE WHAT THEY EAT.

p.s. to anyone that disagrees i have been feeding anoles since i was 10 and i'm 15, but i would like to know what you thank.
i hope this helps
