Blue Beauty Anole (Anolis equestris potior) - Care and Breeding
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- The Anolis equestris potior is the crown jewel of my collection. By far the rarest and most beautiful species that I am working with. The number of people breeding them in the United States can be counted on one hand. That will certainly change in the future as this is a very hardy species that breeds readily under ideal conditions. They are one of the largest species of anoles and by far the most colorful. Their care is not advanced and they are not delicate animals.

Amazing husbandry
Wow, freaking amazing colors
I am a herpetologist in Cuba, I know the species in the wild and I have a captive pair in outdoor vivarium (1x1x1 m). Very enjoyable animals indeed. Glad to see you don't have obese animals. I would very much like the hobby not to genetically degenerate this species because, although it is considered a subspecies of equestris, its limited population has a high evolutionary significance and it could still be considered a good species in the future. Perhaps it is good that there is a captive population (although the first animals were illegally collected from Cuba), but that some aberrations due to artificial selection and inbreeding do not start to appear as is typical in the hobby.
Awesome Video!! Thanks for the shoutout to David (my fiancé) He has worked so diligently with this species and they mean a great deal to him. As I can tell they do you as well! Hope we can meet up someday!
Great video Frank, very nice...high production values, quite informative!
Thanks Patrick!
FINALLY!!! Been waiting for this one!
I’m thinking about trying to buy one, I love them and talk the ear off my family about them, I remember looking for literally all day straight for these I love them so much man.
Ok, so not long ago I got a knight anole, not a blue beauty unfortunately. But he is wild caught of course, and he’s like a bearded dragon. You won’t believe me when I say this, but he’ll let me take him out all the time, usually no problem
I am a anole whispere btw. People call me that, actually.
I’ll tame anything
Beautiful anoles!
Great video, thank you Frank
I have caught a few Cuban night anoles and they are basically the tokay geckos of Cuba
Awesome! Getting 1.1 in February. Can. Not. Wait
Awesome! Hit me up, I have a few juvenile pairs available.
Love your videos they are the best as so much that I learned I can't wait to get a carpet chameleon from you
If only leap habitats made a bit more variety in sizes. The 22x17x36 is pretty solid by all means but I feel like a 30x18x30 would be pretty much perfect. Would be easier than a 36H for temperature control and with the extra 8in in width that would be tons of extra room to move around and get comfortable.
I'd love a 42" wide one in all the current heights!
@@LivingArtbyFrankPayne for sure, the ones they have are awesome, just not that many sizes to choose.
Another fantastic video thanks frank ,wish they were available. like most of your species are impossible or difficult to obtain in the uk really enjoyed the information 😀
Great video! Thank you.
Would love to see another video on these guys !! My pair is arriving in April, I'm so excited!!
Are your plants planted right into the substrate? I'm totally going to use your tip and cover half the ground with cork , thank you so much , cheers from 🇨🇦
Where did you buy yours?
@@richardbinkley8487 Europe import
Your content is very interesting and qualitative thank you for all this knowledge :))
And where did you purchase your backgrounds?
Fantastic video! Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge so others can learn from. How do you get air flow in the tank so it doesn’t become stagnant with the high humidity?
Thank you! The top is all screen and the bottom front panel is screen. This allows for excellent air flow via the chimney effect. As air is heated toward the top of the enclosure it rises up and out pulling fresh air through the bottom front panel, constant fresh air while still maintaining humidity. :)

Where do you get those backgrounds? Just gont one, and trying to give them a great setup.
Awesome video Frank !! Love learning more about these lizards
What's an appropriate size enclosure for a breeding pair indoors? And can a 1.1 pair be raised up to breed in same enclosure or should they be separate and only put together when breeding ? Tbanx!!
Hello and thank you! I keep my adult pairs together year round in 22x17x36 Leap habitats.
I would like to purchase a pair for my son & I… Where can I get more information???
How would i go about purchasing one. We have a nice cage that we had a chameleon in but glass on back and rest screen with water sprayer and fogger and lights like yourss would this be ok ? Also what is the safest way to clean enclosures for next lizard to come into.
I usually have some available on my website in the summer. :) Clorahexadine solution is a good reptile safe cleaner.
Have you ever had any RI infections with any knight anoles
I have not. They are extremely hardy.
Whats your opinion on using a misting system?
Very useful.
Hell yea I'll buy a 1.5k lizard
I’ll have more old enough to sell in the spring. They do sell out quickly though at 4k a pair.
Curious how long do these beautiful Anoles live?
At least ten years.
@@LivingArtbyFrankPayne Thank you for the response. Absolutely have these gorgeous Anolis on my watch list.

I’ve been looking for one for two years🥲
I’ll have some this summer. So will Ron St Pierre and David Eldien
