{ "item_title" : "Green Anole Care Guide", "item_author" : [" George H. Lucas "], "item_description" : "Small, colorful, athletic, and endlessly fascinating to watch, the green anole can turn a thoughtfully designed terrarium into a miniature world of climbing, hunting, basking, and natural behavior. But successful green anole keeping requires much more than placing a small lizard in a tank and offering a few insects. GREEN ANOLE CARE GUIDE gives beginners and reptile enthusiasts a practical foundation for understanding and caring for Anolis carolinensis throughout its life. You will learn how to create an environment that supports the behaviors green anoles naturally depend on-from climbing through foliage and basking beneath appropriate lighting to hunting live prey, drinking droplets, hiding, displaying, and regulating their own body temperature. Inside, you will discover how to: - Choose a healthy green anole from a responsible source - Build a secure, vertically oriented arboreal habitat - Arrange branches, vines, foliage, basking areas, and hiding places - Establish appropriate temperature gradients and basking conditions - Provide effective UVB lighting and a natural day-night cycle - Balance humidity, hydration, misting, and ventilation - Select nutritious live feeder insects and appropriate prey sizes - Use calcium and vitamin supplementation responsibly - Understand color changes, dewlap displays, and territorial behavior - Recognize stress and reduce unnecessary handling - Maintain daily and weekly husbandry routines - Monitor appetite, weight, shedding, hydration, and body condition - Recognize important health warning signs - Understand metabolic bone disease and other husbandry problems - Manage social housing and territorial concerns - Prepare for breeding, eggs, and hatchling care - Handle travel, power outages, and equipment failures - Adjust care as your anole grows and ages Green anoles are primarily animals to observe rather than reptiles that naturally seek frequent physical handling. Their reward comes from watching an animal behave confidently in a properly designed environment-climbing, hunting insects, displaying its dewlap, changing coloration, selecting basking locations, and retreating into foliage when it chooses. Whether you are preparing for your first green anole or improving an existing habitat, GREEN ANOLE CARE GUIDE provides a practical foundation for healthier husbandry and responsible long-term ownership.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/819/243/9798192432648_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "19.00", "online_price" : "19.00", "our_price" : "19.00", "club_price" : "19.00", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
