Hi everyone,
So lately I have been considering getting a Lizard of some sort. Currently I just care for 1 Sulcata tortoise and I enjoy the fact that it does not eat insects just because I did not enjoy having crickets in my house all the time when I owned a Veiled Chameleon a while. From what I have looked into, it does not seem like there is very many herbivorous species of Lizard except for Uromastyx. Based on that fact it seems like Uromastyx may be my best choice. They seem pretty cool and I just started looking into it but am just looking for the opinion of people with more experience. From what I have read, it seems like a lot of the Uro diet can be similar to the diet of my Sulcata. That would be nice as I can buy larger quantities of some of the same foods.
Does this sound right to you? Is there any other species I should consider? I appreciate any and all advice that you may offer.
