I agree with ET on this... you need a proper cage from the beginning. If your looking for an economical way to setup an enclosure for a Uro go to craigslist and find a used 75 gallon aquarium. These measure 48"x18" floor space. Personally I have used them and been able to achieve a good thermal gradient.

I currently have 2 malis, 3 geyri and 2 sudanese. Personally I see my geyri as the most active and the mali as the most tolerant to me being around them. Even just to take them out of the enclosure for a weight/length measurement is 10 seconds each for the malis... the geyri are fast and sometimes dont want to be bothered. My sudanese are WC are run when the enclosure door opens.
