 A small number of species lay their eggs together, forming a communal nest.Among these is the unusual Cuban cave anole where as many as 25 eggs may be glued together in a small cavity on the side of a cave wall.A nest that contained eggs from the bay anole and the geckos "Sphaerodactylus armasi" and "Tarentola crombiei" represents the only known multi-species communal nest for an anole and the only known communal nest involving more than one family of lizard.
