If he/she is eating well, I wouldn't sweat it. Just leave them alone and make sure they're not in a high traffic area. Mine are out of line of sight of the door to the hallway.

I don't dust my crickets EVERY time, that can possibly lead to vitamin overdose.

I have a 12" bushy live plant which they use a security. You don't often seem them not in it, unless they're hunting crickets on the floor. I have it under the light, so they can choose their basking temperature and still be secure feeling. After they chow a few crickets down, they lay out on the top of the plant close to the bulb...when they get too hot, they migrate down into the leaves a little further.

In the wild, they're always found near some thick cover usually. Not something to hide under, but something to hide IN, like a thick bush or tree branches.

Go to Home Depot or Lowe's and get a $6.99 12" bushy plant and put it under the light...after about a week, I think you'll notice your little anole (when you can visually see him) will show you some neon green coloration. It often takes me about 10 minutes to visually spot them both when they're in the plant. I think that kind of security for them is a must. Plus the plant can be watered every few days (the light will dry it out) and it will cut down on the amount of misting you have to do.
