I enjoy watching the anoles running around. I sit out in my yard in my adirondack chair reading the newspaper and out of the corner of my eye I see them on the palm trunks and running over the rocks. I never thought to buy crickets at Pet Smart to feed them. Sounds like a great idea! As a boy in New Jersey I used to buy some anoles at the pet store in the summer and let then run loose in our screened in porch. I loved to watch them creep up on the house flies. Boom! They had a tasty meal. During the winter they lived in a terrarium inside the house. We used to call them chameleons. That's what the pet store called them too. They can change color to suit their surroundings.
