    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Possible female CB21 U. princeps.

The smallest species, and probably the rarest uromastyx in the US hobby.

Saying possible female, since females tend to have narrower circles/dots, less distant from each other, when compared to males.

This little one is doing incredible, is also super bold, jumps on our hands for food, and has a voracious appetite. $1000 plus 59 shipping.

This species is originally from the horn of Africa, in Somalia. U. princeps inhabits coastal rocky plateaus of volcanic origin.
Their diet consists mainly of flowers and leaves/grasses. They usually bask in the early hours of the morning and late afternoons, and hide in rock crevices when threatened by potential predators, and during the warmest times of the day. They block the entrance of the crevice with their spiky tail.

Been trying to decide if I want to keep these guys or not, have a couple questions. Do princeps require a cooling period for brumation like other uros? Or do you keep them warm year round, since Somalia has a pretty tropical climate?
