My brown anole escaped during a feeding a little over a week ago. I have been looking for him and I cannot find him. I watched him run under my bed and disappear. I then proceeded to tear apart my room in hopes of finding him, with no success. I have put a plant under the bed and I have been misting it in hopes that he will drink the water and hide in the plant, but I have still not found him. This is the second time this has happened; he is quite the escape artist. What can I do?
Thanks,
Mark

I have lost many anoles through the years, Just last year I got back my male Motley Albino Corn back after roaming my house for 8 months. As far as the anoles they always seemed to turn up around planted areas of the house, Try moving the plant from under the bed and putting it in a well lit area of the room, Keep a close eye also on other house plants, even fake plants will harbor an anole.
