The ]v[onster has begun!!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
You have room for massive colonies of geckos and anoles in that sweet enclosure. Thumbs up for your sig!
 
If you want a personal advice, I would encorage you to get those house geckos but insted of anoles go for a pair of madagascar day geckos, MUCH BOLDER once they realize your not going to eat them plus much more easily self-sustaining and more agressive insect hunters then most anoles. Plus they use the space available as a woule, not just the plants.
 
The anoles will be free, so Im not worried about it. Its an experiment for an attempt at mini ecosystem. some will likly be kept in tanks to try and get some breeding for a vine snake soon :D

Side note, pics up later for a cool new planter sorta thing that I built today. Its obviously not 100% done as well, I dont have any more plants for it yet. Soon!! The new design will povide more climbing source for anoles, geckos as well as hiding spots for them and insects.

Oh and coura, ty. Iv been trying to make sure she gets plenty to eat. sadly that means some goes to waste :(
 
Here is the new design. I will be building some spots to place pots into some of the branches. The new plant, i forget the name, but grows into 3 different colors :D. Its freakin awesome. The post in the pic(we all know the post) will be replaced with a similar style branch thing. The one placed into there right now, is pretty secure. Has three boards nailed into it under the soil, a few large rocks around it then packed with soil. I like it :D Whats everyone think??? Good?? Bad??

Also some other random pics of new growth.

Had to add this chain. Put some new foam around the door for a 100% seal at it and needed to add it to pull the door shut.

Dear Santa...
I take that as a compliment. Lol. Thank you!!
 
Put some Tillandsia on the branches, will look way cooler. As for the anoles, dont even try to raise them as live food, completly not worth the effort, dont waist your time and money, or at least not as the main source. Use the tanks to aclimatize and put some weigth on them and then use them when have to. If your going to need lizard feeders, house geckos and even for example skunk geckos wich can be kept in group in large terraria and breed plentifully are much better choices. If you put anoles specially in your larger terraria they will possibly bred, but it will take time and it will nowhere near the number you need to feed a snake. They are territorial and they are drama queens. House geckos are agressive feeders, grow rapidly and can be grown in groups in relatively small spaces, they are the way to go.
 
ok cool. hope i can get enough of them.
 
The other one is up. More support for the roof. A new plant, and frankly, it just looks awesome!! Let me know what ya think!! :D
