Great looking Uro. I've got 13 right now. Best desert reptile ever! Too many are so under nourished, really good to see yours with it's belly. I wish I had room for egyptions, right now I keep both red and gold Saharans, Mali, and ornate. Although I picked up a baby "Mali" that now I'm wondering what he might be. It's developing an orange banding and more tan then even my adult female Malis.

Banded uros are great. Your pair and setup looks fantastic!

Thanks...I agree that they are one of the best desert lizards to own. They are up there with being one of my top favorites.

I know that pic is off deer fern farms web site. That is one of the best web sites for uros. I hope yours looks like that to. That one in the pic is very cherry and unusual to find looking like that.

That's who I got them from. They were at the Reptile Super Show last year here in Pomona, CA.

Posting an update...Poncho is doing just fine. Still has a strong appetite and just got done with another shed. Sometimes his neck gets pitch black. About a month ago his pores underneath his back legs secreted alot of waxy substance.

YAY! He's being all "I'm a mature male. Look at me scent marking". I love when they get to that stage.
My Mali is almost there. Allllmost. He's still a tiny bit too young, though.
