My sulcata Rex, is about 4 years old around 25lbs. He has grass in his enclosure year round, but I supplement with greens and such at least twice a week. I have given him hay in the past and he hasn’t been to fond of it, but recently my girls we feeding our goats and putting hay in the...

Ok thanks. Just wanted to ask

From what I’ve read, many people do not provide water for their Uromastxy. Or even must the enclosure. I have provided mine with a homemade humid hide and he laps the water off the walls like a dog licking a bowl. Would it hurt to provide a water dish? I’m more concerned because of all the...

Ended up naming him Diego, because she came from San Diego, also because my said I couldn’t name him Dave lol

My lizard has arrived safe

He has arrived safe

Thanks again, I will update how things turn out tomorrow.

Thank you, just looking for some reassurance. Enclosure has been running for days tweaking temps and such

I’m sorry I know this in the wrong forum, but I didn’t know where to post it. I ordered an Nigerian Uromastxy online and it shipped out yesterday to arrive today by 12pm. I’ve been tracking the package like a mad man, but it got delayed in Louisville KY, it just left and is supposed to be in...

Glad to hear that, I will post picks when he arrives

Ok cool. Yeah when I started researching I was surprised how hot they like it.

What is your night time temps? I’m finding conflicting information. In my test runs I’ve been keeping to enclosure between 75 and 80 degrees at night.

Thanks for the tip, I’m hoping mine will be easy going, guess I’ll see lol

Ok thank you, just wanted to make sure. I’m excited to get him, he’s the first animal I’ve ever purchased online.

Hello all, I’ve ordered a Red Nigerian Uromastyx. He should arrive 10/12. Ive been playing with temps and what not in its enclosure and have that temps and humidity set. My question is more about taking my lizard outside for natural sunlight for a little while on nice days. I live in South...

My sulcata has recently started trying to ram the sprinkler I use to water his lawn. I’ve seen him bite at it a few times also. He is male about 15 inches long. About 4 years old. Any reason he would suddenly want to fight the sprinkler?

I always leave cuttle bones in the tortoise enclosure. I like them because he gets calcium and it helps trim his beak

I have green anoles all in my tortoise enclosure. Have even seen an ankle basking on my Sulcatas shell. There is risk, but I have never had a problem. As Tom stated the lizards also rid the enclosure of bugs. I do try to relocate toads I find in the enclosure, they like to soak in the water...

Wow, that’s amazing. My sulcata Rex won’t come out when it’s chilly and yours are playing in the snow. Stay safe, I know y’all are catching it right now

During the winter. I bring my sulcata in the house every few days to soak in the tub. He’s about 13 inches and 15lbs. Anyway I started giving him cucumbers in the tub to make sure hydrated. I figured if he is constantly bobbing for cucumber chunks he has got to be taking in some water. I end...
