Uromastyx

[Mahlerfan]

I've been keeping Uromastyx lizards for a little over ten years. They are really fun lizards to work with. Below are photos of some of last years babies that my adult pair of Banded Uromastyx produced.

And here are mom

very cool, I want to stock up on breeding pairs within the next few years as Ive heard rumors on other forums that they will close exportation soon, same with a lot of the small 10 dollar lizards you see at chain stores

Very nice animals and congrats on getting them to breed. I came close to keeping uros years ago but it just never happened. I still like them and would love to keep a few some day.

Thanks everyone. I'll post some more photos later.

latshki, the country of Mali has recently stopped exportation of Uromastyx dispar maliensis. As Uromastyx are a bit difficult to reproduce, this subspecies of Uromastyx may start to disappear from the hobby in a few years or sooner.
