We just got a new mali uromastyx. Because of it's color, we thought it was a large female. However, once I got it home, it was aggressive. I figured it was stressed from the move from the pet store to our home, and let it relax in it's new environment. We tried handling it later in the evening, and it would writhe like a snake and whip at us with it's tail. It even hissed at us and puffed up like a balloon. My husband suggested that it may be acting that was because it's a male. So we're very unsure. Here are the pictures, any help?
