Now this shows his color off and he is only a subadult. He has been eating well and only after being in his new home one day.
As an adult his yellow should be full bodied and totally amazing right along with his personality! :0)

Hey hey! It's Dino! Solar does look like him! Actually my boys pretty dull right now he's shedding. Half his back is bright yellow and the other half is dull. I took alot more photos of him outside his viv, in my hands, and in natural light and he looks stunning. Just hope they turn out better than my last lot! I'll upload them when I can. How can you tell their age anyway? I'm assuming Dino is between 3 and 5 because he grew an inch in a few months so I'm guessing not sexually mature or nothin. But I'm still a little bamboozled by all this stuff!

Is that ornate WC or CB? I was going to say, looks very healthy!

That's an ornate? My Yellow Saharan looks quite similar!

Only the brown in yours is green in mine.

Great looking uro!

Wow, Greg- what a chubby lady! Nice to see so many lizards at your house, you might just be catching up with me.

One of my female U.geryi's is sooooo fat now that I think she must be gravid- even though it is the wrong season. She eats and poops like a cow and has gained almost 50g since I first got her, and she's not very long. She really looks like she is going to explode- she dosn't fit into the paper towel tubes that I have in there for hides anymore, so I have to find tubing that is bigger than that...any ideas? I'll see if I can figure out this new system well enough to post a pic of her so you can tell me what you think. I don't think I can feel eggs like when my dragons are gravid, I don't even know if that is possible... but she is just so fat!

That's terrific yours are doing well! I'd rather have mine overly hefty, than trying to syringe feed these babies!

Try pringles cans. They work great, just open up both ends.
Also try mailing tubes at office supply stores as well. You can always cut them down to the length you need. For some reason, uro's love these as hiding spots.

Really nice to hear from you!!!
