Nigerian Uromastyx

Nigerian Uromastyx, (Uromastyx geyri), are ground dwelling lizards native to the deserts of Africa. They are very popular pets because of their attractive appearance and unique personalities. Uromastyx are hardy, outgoing and quickly become tame. While many desert animals seek shelter during the hottest part of the day, these lizards are most active in the heat of the day. They like to dig burrows that are used to for shelter, escape from predators, or a cooling down area. Uromastyx are territorial but can be kept in groups with one male per group as long as enough space, basking, and hiding places are provided.

Buyer Responsibility: Please read before purchasing live reptiles.

Aproximate arrival size for Nigerian Uromastyx: 8" to 14"
