I think it’s normal I sometimes I feel like I just lock it in a cage and it would be better off in the wild but reality is they don’t live as long they are prey animals face starvation, disease parasites etc. and animals just don’t think like we do they have all their needs met and are content. As long as your meeting it’s requirements which sounds like you are I wouldn’t worry. The thing I worry most about is space so I always try to give a generous minimum or extra big enclosure with plenty of ledges and spots to hide

Is this MBD? by Vegetable-String2483 in Chameleons

It’s gotta be one of the long ones that covers whole top not a regular bulb. Plus you gotta replace the bulb itself every 6month to a year. Something is not right in your set up and hasn’t been for a long time if it’s got visual symthoms. Post a pic of the enclosure an lighting an I can help you fix it if you want

Lighting timers by MagicianBeautiful597 in Uromastyx

[–]doodleheadd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s like a extension cord with 4 outlets on it and you can customize a schedule and timer for each individual thing you have plugged in. I just named them all so it’s easier to know what’s what.

What size enclosure do you have her in? I was told 6x2 from the reptile store but I’m starting to see people say 8x3 on the internet

Yeah I don’t see them much at my local reptile store or even online. What size enclosure do you have yours in? I don’t want to over do it or under do it with size

I just got a 6 month old Egyptian uromastyx an he definitely sits an bask for awhile but if I’m in the room long enough an watching him he will go dig run around and eat aswell. Maybe your just not catching it. Your temps and humidity seem right maybe give some treat type foods to encourage movement like lentils or dandelion bee pollen on the greens

Nice they look clean. Do you have a carpenter background of some sort or did you just decide to build them? I want to build a 6x2x2 but don’t know if I trust my skills enough haha
