I love the green uro, i am really looking for one, i've got a nigerian, does the green mean male or female? i've read the ornates can have the calmest personality of all the uro's, how are yours? thanks

The green is a male. I have to say they are the most calm of my 5 species. I take them along to pet shops and always use them if I do a presentation. They just sit in my hand. They never run, hide, flinch...they are super sweet, like little reptilian puppies. I'm sure you would not be disappointed if you got one. Good luck.

Pro Exotics has some cb babies right now, starting at $250. You can also check out Deer Fern Farms, Urotopia and Audrey Vanderlinden, all excellent sources. Good luck.

They are very calm, not flighty at all.
Hope to get some breeding this year.
