🏠Bedding & habitat for the Green anole
Green anole : A planted vertical terrarium of at least 45 x 45 x 60 cm for one individual, low to medium UVB, a 29-30 °C basking spot and nights around 20-22 °C. A tight lid is a must, as it slips through any gap.
This is the structural purchase — and where mistakes cost the most: too small, badly placed, badly sized. Our guides give serious minimum dimensions for a reptile, the materials that last, and the traps of entry-level products.
Size the terrarium for the adult, not the juvenile: 120 × 60 × 60 cm for a bearded dragon, and OSB insulates better than all-glass.
