Having regurgated a second anole (F/T) and unable to hold on to a small live Anole, it was time to let nature take it's course. The dent in it's head from the RN's rear teeth isn't improving, I let it go.

On a lighter note, the Aloe plant is also a RN Bite victim. You can see where the rear teeth browned the plant. I stopped the snake before it started to swallow the end.

Lets talk about eating big. It took over a 1/2 hr to turn this 4" F/T Anole (no tail) into New Years dinner.

Concerning F/T how do you "gut stuff" the anole. The F/T process seems to dehydrate the Anole.

Thanks for your help......
