What kind of Uro is this?

jmartin104 Feb 03, 2006 10:38 AM

We just picked this up from a friend who can no longer care for it. In trying to research its needs, we have found several different types with different requirements. Any help in identification is greatly appreciated.

The black head. There are male/female mimics but, generally speaking, the male mali's head blacken as they get older.

he looks alot like my hugo, especially because right now hugo has a similar circle on his back where he peeled but hasn't finished peeling yet. he has alot of black on him, which can signify a male. however, here is a link to a lovely picture and instructions that torey, el toro gave us a while back

these are from a couple months ago, my boy hugo

I won't even make a guess because to me, so many of the species look alike -- I'm an amateur. You might try this link though. It has pics of all the species.
