Great information and starting point for those making cages over troughs. Robyn, what species do you house in the trough box in last 2 pics?
i believe you are referring to the 10 ft oblong. we have done Ackies, Uros, Tegus, Ionides, among others in that trough : )

Do you keep your uromastyx in smaller cages now?
we decided to start keeping the Uros more like Veal. tiny 2 inch by 8 inch bins. their tails curl up a bit to fit, and they aren't as healthy, but their flesh...so tender!
