what i saw in florida and IDs needed!!! :)

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
The 6th picture is definitely NOT a female brown anole. None of those pictures are.
Snakeguy101 correctly identified every single one.
Unfortunately the green anoles are not nearly as common as they once were mostly due to the cuban browns....
Brown anoles are bigger and bossier, they compete for food with the greens and I have even witnessed one eat a hatchling green anole... no idea if this is common behavior or not.....
either way it's horrible....
Invasives run rampant here :(

Dude, having lived in Floriduh all my life, and collected Anoles commercially for a few years now, that is a Female Brown Anole........Not a House Gecko, but an Anole........Look at the freakin Eye if you don't believe me.......

Look at the freakin feet and body shape! If you identify things by eyes then you probably misidentify most of them.

Exactly......The head shape, eye shape and size ( notice the ROUND, LARGE eyes on the House Geckos? ), claws on the toe pads, and general body shape tells me it's an Anole.........Compare them to the other pictures of the Male Brown Anoles........
 
My bad... I hate admitting I'm wrong but I just realized you are talking about the 6th photo... and I was talking about the 8th.....
Was about to post a whole big arguement and went to copy the picture and counted out the 6 and I was like... oohhh........

Sorry....
That is an anole >.> eyelids give it away... probably a female

Didn't mean to cause such a fuss and now I feel like an idiot lol
