Good points on the stressors and quarantine issues, and that is a MAJOR issue with me right now with uros in general. A lot of sick WC stuff out there in general. My first uro experience (nigerian) was dismal. She was set up properly in a four x two foot cage with UVB/heat basking light and a basking temp around 110-120 degrees. She never really ate and died within a couple of months. My second experience is great, and so far so good on my third acquisition (both malis). I just thought it might be pretty cool to have a couple of similar sized uros that were different looking housed in one extra big elaborate cage. Instead of several four x two foot cages, have one big eight by four footer with multi-level basking areas/light placements and room to really landscape. I quess its just wishfull thinking LOL!!
