What are you feeding it? I've never seen a Uro like this! Except on the one on Youtube.... Do give him a lot of bugs? My Uros never get like this, neither does my iguanas. It could be hypothyroidism whether the thyroid is not functioning properly and causing iodine deficiency. It can eventually lead to death if left untreated. Feeding veggies that are too high in goitrogenic compound (like kale, bok choy, cabbage, etc...) too often will impaired the thyroid gland and cause iodine deficiency. Does it sleep a lot and is lethargic?
