Just got a Nigerian Uromastyx today! He's awesome! Here's pics of him in his enclosure! (Which still needs some furnishing)

Here's his enclosure, I'm gonna probably throw some sand in there and hide spots.

Very nice looking Uro. Looks like a male. Any idea how old he is?

Cool! Give him some dirt and lots of heat. They will bask on surfaces with temperatures over 140f. They are also very active burrowers and spend the majority of their lives underground. In that particular enclosure, I would give him a couple inches of dirt, as well as an enclosed rubbermaid tub full of dirt with an access hole so he can make a 'burrow'.

They are a lot of fun, and a little challenging at times, but I'm sure you are going to have a blast with him.

Nice looking fella! I love the coloring. Any reason you went for a Nigerian Uro in particular?
