Ornate Uro?

JEFFREH Oct 06, 2004 09:00 PM

I was just flipping througha magazine when I came across a gorgeous picture of a ornate uro. I thought they looked awesome and I just wanted to know some basic care needs. I currently own a leopard gecko, and crested gecko, and a beared dragon. I'm assuming they are mostly veggetarians? So could I feed them what I feed my bearded? Ex. Collard Greens, Mustard Greens, Dandelion Greens, endive, escarole. Have almost no idea of care needs, and I prolly cant get one cause I'm 13 and I have parents who are already fed up with my other lizards.

So my quetions are these:

What size enclosure do they need?
How much and what do they eat?
Can they be handled any?
Do they bite, and are they aggressive?
What kind of cage setup do they need and what temp?
Any good sites with caresheets and maybe pictures?
Do you have any pictures?
How good of a pet are they overall and give any hints about them to help care for them.
One last thing, How much do they cost, and how much does the total cost, and how much does the total of food cost a week?

I'm definetly doing more research, but I figured I would ask first.
