New pics of my Cuban Knight Anole

[jannb]

This is Dulce. She's growing like a weed. Up from 3 to 5 grams this week. The pictures aren't the greatest but you can see how much she's growing. She's also getting friendlier and not the wild jumper that she was.

Once a week on the weekend she gets apple sauce

AWWW she is on her way to being tame Glad she is still doing well for you and mike. Keep it up on the good work

 

[Julirs]

Wow-how cute and I am amzed at how tame it is-does it ever try to run?

 

[jojackson]

Will you get her a male at all? Might be nice to see some natural Behaviours, ie coutrship etc. Just curious if you 'sun' her outside (or will, come warmer days), and if she's brighter under Uv?
Any pics of the viv?

 

[jannb]

Juli she's getting ALLOT better about the jumping and running. Now she just hops up to my shoulder and seems to enjoy sitting there.

Dan we are not planning to get a male but we were not planning to get Dulce either......we just took her in out of the cold back before Christmas when we had a cold spell. Right now she's staying in Luie's travel cage (Luie would freak if I put him in that thing). When she's bigger she will have a free range tree. She's already got to hang in the trees a couple of times (once by accident when the latch on the cage door broke). I came home from work and the cage was empty and Dulce was in the top of the tree. She seems very content to just hang in the top of the trees.

Here's a few pics of the cage.

Looks like fantastic little anole winter retreat! she should be very pleased.
dont they hang out on tree trunks alot? maybe a few verticle perches???
looks good!
I guess by spring you'll be too attached to set it free huh?

maybe a few verticle perches???
looks good!

Agreed!

 

[pssh]

She's really cute. I wish I was hand fed apple sauce once a week!

 

[jannb]

Thanks for the advice. I'll get some verticle branches for her shortly.

Dan, I'm already attached to her and it gets to cold here for her to live outside in the winter. Have you looked at Kathy's post about hers? Look way down through the post at her adults. Pretty cool, huh? https://www.chameleonforums.com/baby-cuban-knight-anole-32448/

Oh wow, Yes I remember that thread, just took another look. How cute are they, and so tame and unbothered by their owner too.
What an amazing looking setup she has for them too, she has really outdone herself!
Must be extremely entertaining little pets, what a shame we cant get them here.
Very cool indeed!

Wow, she is so gorgeous! She's also so tiny, too

Update on Dulce with new pictures

Dulce has doubled in size and weight. We took her in the week before Christmas and her weight was 4 grams. She's now up to 8 grams and just spoiled rotten. We added some branches to her cage.......she doesn't like the cage and wants to free range in the trees but she's still so tiny I only allow her to play in the trees when I can keep an eye on her.

Hope you enjoy her new pictures.

Updated cage

She is looking quite plump!

Do you think she's too fat? She loves to eat.

 

[Syn]

She looks like she is well taken care of. I am not sure how fat is too fat, though.

 

[Lizardlover]

Do you think she's too fat? She loves to eat.

she looks healthily plump, and well taken care of. Although the guy that hangs out in my backyard that always likes getting free handouts is a bit thinner, but hes wild and full grown. I think being that shes young she needs to be a bit plump.

Thanks Sabrina and Danny!!!!
