Sexing my Uro...

npohworks Jun 07, 2003 03:03 PM

This little one seems to baffle most of the people who I ask, so I thought I'd post some pictures to the message board to get some of your opinions.
We have always referred to Quinn as a "she." We got her when she was just a little sprout, sold to us as a "captive bred Mali Uromastyx." She had the club foot when we got her. In spite of all our best heating and dietary efforts, she is unarguably stunted. She's about 4 or 5 now and probably only as long as my hand from snout to vent.

I have included a link to 3 pictures. The picture of Quinn with our other two Uros is so that you can compare the size to the other two. Ricky, we know, is exceptionally large for a Mali, length and girth wise he is the biggest one I have ever seen! Yes, we know he is a bit on the portly side, he is on a diet now (no more cricket or superworm treats!!). Anna is our newest girl, she had just laid a clutch of eggs but we are happy to say she is eating like a little piggy and we'll hopefully have her porked up real soon.

I think Quinn is a lovely female.
