Different breeds of Uromastyx

This girl is going to bring her uro to my store. What are the different types of uros, and what the different care level? (I'm thinking of adopting it)

Re: Different breeds of Uromastyx

check out Deer Fern Farms Uromastyx Species Page. He has pictures and descriptions of most of the uro species, and a lot of good information as well.

Re: Different breeds of Uromastyx

Most of them have pretty much the same care requirements. It's more than likely going to either be a Mali or a Saharan she'll be bringing.

Re: Different breeds of Uromastyx

That's what I was thinking. Especially if she got it in a pet store. Most likely it's a mali.

They have almost the same care requirements for all the species, so just check out the uro care sheet. If it's an egyptian, I believe the care requirements are just slightly different, so you will want to search for a care sheet on them. But the chances of getting one are pretty rare.
