Every1 please post!! 
every1 says that I cant use a water bowl for my anole.. can I? (i have used a water bowl before in my 5 and a half but the light would keep on evaporting the water but now I am goin to buy a 10 gallon tank so i think it would be best to put the bowl on the other side of the tank a way from the lights)Also if i did tell the people where the place I am getting my new anole(1female and 1male) would they no the difference between a male and female.And if would they ever mate?i sry about these questions but do they lay eeg’s.

Most anoles will not drink from standing water. My suggestion is to either get an automatic mister or mist the tank your self 3-4 times per day. Anoles will drink the droplets of water off the leafs, if any, and off the glass.
Also you can get a waterfall and the sound of running water will attract them to drink as well.
As far as the people at the pet shop being able to sex them, they should be able to, but you never know. As for the mating, if conditions are right they will mate and yes they do lay eggs.

all of my anoles regularly drink from their water bowl.its a large ceramic one and they hop down to the rim and just drink.one of my younger females will ONLY eat crickets that r stuck in the water in the dish!...go figure..LOL!i believe they learn by seeing motion in the water...whether it be crickets swimming in it or drips falling into it.but after they get used to it they need no motion.

yes they lay eggs. i recently moved my anoles to a new viv and found 2 cold eggs. however a ten gallon tank is a bit too small for 2 anoles. really they need at least 10g each. i certainly wouldn’t put tree frogs in there as well.

pick out your anoles yourself. a female will be tiny and have a very smooth streamlined head with a white stripe down her back and a male will be larger with a head that seems too big for his body, a juvenile male may also have a stripe down his back. the easiest way to tell is to flip the anole onto his back and look for two enlarged scales at the base of the tail, if you find these to larger scales then you are looking at a strapping young man!

they may not drink from this still water the best thing to do is get a water stone attached to a pump which will make bubbles in this or even get a waterfall which i have and my anoles love this
