What type of care does the Uromastyx need?
I have bought an Uromastyx lizard and I am wondering if any of you has some special tips for his care. I am using a 30 gallon tank, a heat light and a heat rock and crickets to eat and sand for bedding. That is all what as per shop owner had told me. But it seems like that I need something more so I want to know some extra information on his care sheet. In Reptile care Asked by Guest 3 Answers 348 Views 1 year ago Resolved

Remove that heat rock. If you want to make use of it as the decoration then you can cut its cord and use it under the heat lamp. It can heat up unsurprisingly. You can use UV light and a heat lamp. If you have a baby Uromastyx then don’t use the sand until he is of one year. Instead of that use non practical substrate, reptile carpet or paper towel, etc. Answered by Rufus 1 year ago

You should use UVA or UVB lighting. It is essential and will cost around 40 $. If you have the heat lamp then use that in the place of heat rock. Reptiles have problem in regulating the heat. So, don’t use that heat rock. You can make a cave for him to hide. You should put a water bowl for him to drink water. You can sprinkle parakeet seed on the vegetables to aid in the digestion. Dust the veggies and crickets for the more balanced diets. I hope this will help! Answered by Laker 1 year ago

For Uromastyx you will require a high temperature at 105- 125 F. Uromastyx is herbivores so he will not the crickets that you got. I prepared a good salad for my Uromastyx and dragon consists of the collard greens, kale, dandelion greens and romaine lettuce. With the grated yellow squash, snow peas, and carrots. You can give him all these daily in a big bowl. Answered by Aston66 1 year ago
