Uromastyxs

Uromastyx are the a very popular pet lizard though they can be a little difficult to find captive bred within the UK. As they are extremely difficult to sex until they are fully mature they are not often kept as pairs and are rarely bred by amateur reptile keepers at home. There are many different species of Uromastyx and they can range from less than 12 inches in length up to 36 inches in length depending on which species you choose. They are mostly herbivorous and eat fresh vegetables and seeds as the main diet. Some species may appreciate some livefood as an occasional treat.
