Do Uro's Stink

mmd66 Jan 29, 2009 07:18 PM

sorry to bother you all but i have a question you may be able to answer.

I wanted a pair of mali's , but at a recent expo i picked up a pair of jewelled lacerta's.

They stink, literally, after a poop, it smells worse then my 2 year old and permiates the house.

Do Uro's smell, does it smell when the deficate (im assuming since they are a dessert species they probably retqin water and do not have wet poops).

Thank you for your time.

Not mine, they smell like giggleberries.

haha. No Uro's do not stink, however they do require a fairly large enclosure and lots of heat. The only odd smell I ever noticed coming from my Uro enclosure was food that was dragged under the basking light and was kinda funky looking by the time I got home that afternoon heh.

I sniffed giggleberries at Publix last week & they smelled like krap. Each to his own...
