I am currently looking for a new lizard. Uro's seem pretty cool, but i don't know a lot about them. How big do they get? What do they eat? etc, any info would be very helpful. Also any personal responces conserning your experience with your uro is appreciated also. Thanks.

Best thing to do is to read the caresheets about the animal in question. I knew nothing about uros but when I saw one in a pet store I decided to research it first to see if it would suit my lifestyle (I live in an apartment). I learned a lot about them through caresheets because there's little to no literature about these guys. Doug Dix has excellent caresheets for uros. Check out his website (it's deerfernfarms).
Good luck

Hey, Uros are great lizards, and the best thing about them (in my opinion) is they live on mainly greens. My best advice is to read as many care sheets as you can.

There are some at:
