Default Uromastyx

just couldn't pass up the opportunity to show this awesome pic my friend took of my uro.


i was also wondering if there was a good way to tell their age, its an Egyptian and I've heard they grow bigger than most other uros( up to 3 feet from what I've read)

P.S. look dean! i posted in the right section this time!(unless you wanna be an ass and point out i have a picture in the regular lizard section not the picture section)
