Cute Uro

We got a uromastyx a month ago and we love him! He's a mali and was underfed at the pet store (I work there but not every day)... he's finally starting to fatten up. He's not easily handled unless he's cooled off a bit, but he looooves to eat and it's so much fun to hand feed him.

Here he is hunting his own food, he loves dandelions :P

That second picture is so cute I couldn't resist sharing :D

I love Mali's they look like turtles in the face and dinosaurs in the rear.. Very nice Herp of the month worthy in my book.

dig that crazy tail! i don't know if 'cute' is the word i would use but definitely cool looking! and i really like the 2nd pic too!

i second that!

I love malis and yours is a cutie! :D

I've had a Mali for a few years now. Very cool little lizards. Mine is fine and calm once he is out but will tail thrash until he calms down. Very cool!

I'm with Jamie... my Nigerian throws a squirm fit for a few seconds then he's all good ! Very cute baby there!!!! Looks like it's getting some nice yellow too! :sunny:

Cute pics! Looks like he had some fun in the sun! :sunny:

I the photo of him eating is cute. Reminds me of my Uromastyx geryi. Mali's have the better personality ihmo, but I love the color of the geryi.
