    Uro UnderEnclosure Hide

    I keep two Geryi Uros in a 4 x 2 x 2 enclosure with nice, hot basking spot and a cooler side. I also built in a tunnel that goes through the floor on the cool side to an enclosed plastic container filled with substrate and sphagnum moss. I spray it down often so they can get some humidity if...

    Egyptian Uros

    I want one! Why can't I find one? I did see an adult Egyptian at the last reptile expo, but they wanted like $1,700.00 if I remember correctly. Someone needs to get busy breeding these for me! I'm kidding, of course. Are they difficult to breed? or is there just not much of a demand for these...

    Hog or Pearl?

    A couple months ago, I posted a picture of a large cage that I used to keep birds in. It is large and quite tall. I asked for suggestions about what kind of reptile(s) to keep in it. (With appropriate re-modeling, of course!) I received lot's of good ideas. But the suggestion that resonated with...

    Vitamin and calcium suplementation

    I have two Uros and a baby Longicauda boa. Every time i sprinkle powdered vitamins or calcium on their food, they don't eat it. I guess they don't like the taste. I use a Reptisun 10.0 UVB light and put them out in the direct sun a couple times a week. Should I be concerned about them not...

    More Heat Questions

    When a care guide suggests a hot side temperature of, say 90 degrees, with an under tank heater, Am I correct in assuming they are referring to the surface temperature of the enclosure floor and not the temperature of the air? If so, Should I measure the temp (with a temp gun) on the surface...

    BioActive

    I saw a video of the Bio Dude setting up a bio-active enclosure for a hognose snake. Is there any benefit to this? I mean, the bio-activity is supposed to break down waste in the soil and convert it to energy for live plants, right? Great for frogs and small geckos, but aren't you going to...

    Uromastyx basking spot temps

    I have a flat stone for my Uros to bask on. I have an infrared heat lamp that gets the surface of the stone to about 112-120 degrees in the hottest spot. My question is: Is this hot enough? I mean do you go strictly by temperature, or do you use the behavior of your animals as a guide? In other...

    Several words about Uromastyx substrate.

    Before I start, I want everyone to know that I am NOT an expert in any way. Just a guy with opinions. These are my opinions, not fact. Like most people who have researched Uromastyx care, I found several sources who suggest millet or bird seed as a suitable substrate for Uros citing less risk of...

    What should I do with this cage?

    My name is Wayne and I am new to this site, But I thought it would be fun to start a discussion. I'm asking for Ideas. First of all, I'm not completely new to keeping reptiles, but It's been a long time. I had pythons when I was much younger. I just got a pair of Uros and just finished their...
