Very nice. They sure are becoming more common. Definitely need more reputable info on these guys though.

Such as?

These are still little babies as I am sure you can see - but man they can shovel food down their gullets and sure are growing fast.

Oh I mean there isn't too much literature dedicated to this species.

Thomas Wilms - in his book "Uromastyx" covers these as well as he does almost all of the other species. (ISBN 3-936180-12-1) Published by Herpeton.

The one or two not well covered is due to lack of info and specimens. e.g. the occidentalis - were he mentions "the only known adult male" as being dark-red / brown - and "the only known juvenile" as being yellow brown.

Another not very well covered is the macfadyeni - but the rest are very well covered in varying degrees - I highly reccommend his book.


The aegyptia seems quite well covered to me by Jerry G. Walls too in his book titled - "The Guide to Owning Uromastyx and butterfly Agamids" (ISBN 0-7938-2074-X) a t.f.h publication, but he certainly does not cover it well at all in his book "Uromastyx - plus other Common Agamids" (ISBN 1-882770-87-0), published by AVS
