Large vertically oriented cage, a load of food, good UV light and moderate warm spot 85 degrees or so. I kept mine a lot like giant green anoles with appropriately sized food. Really pretty lizards when they color up and are healthy. Close to being the larges anole species i cant recall if the jamaican is larger or not off the top of my head.

Don't forget to mist.

They enjoy humidity around the 50%-70% range.

High levels of humidity for too long is asking for some type of fungal disease, so be careful.

It's a good idea to invest in a hydrometer.

Good luck!!:)

They're easy to take care of. Keep the temperature in the lower to mid eighties. Relatively high humidity. vary up its diet with crickets, meal worms and wax worms. I'd also provide calcium suppliments and UV lighting. The care of these guys is pretty similar to most other tropical lizards.

lol... iheartfishies, I honestly don't see what you would need a hydrometer for though, unless you wanted to test the specific gravity of thier drinking water.

"iheartfishies" likely meant "hygrometer".

I knew what she meant. I was being a smartass. I don't have the chance to get online until at least midnight, and I'm usually on the computer until at least 4 or 5 am. When I'm tired my sense of humor is all out of whack and it turns me into a smartass retard most of the time.
