    :) My son has an anole (we got him 5 months ago). He used to be very lively and ate about 3 crickets each day. The past few weeks, he's become very lethargic and hasn't eaten anything at all. He has a basking temp of 85-95 degrees, is in a 10 gallon tank and has UVB light. We've recently tried waxworms and mealworms which he ate a few days ago, but is not even interested in them now. How long can they go without food? What could be wrong and how can we help him?

    Has the temperature changed at all? Also mealworms are not a good food choice, they have a hard shell that is hard for them to digest.
