 Need to find a home for TWO juvie Mali Uromastyx

As some of you know, my husband hasn’t worked in over 18 months and we are now going to have to Re-home Two of our younger Uromastyx before we have to invest in TWO more huge enclosures for them. Right now they are each in a 40g breeder (I know I know .. not good, but at least they aren’t in one together).

Here they are:
First, there is Tygra, we are pretty sure its a female, but won’t guarantee it. I think she is a Honeycomb Mali, but not sure



And then there is Panthro, we are 99% sure its a Male from the pores. He looks like he might possibly be a Banded Mali. But again, we won’t guarantee anything.



The are both about 18 months old, 7" long from tip of nose to end of tail. We have had them for about 5 months and the person whom we got them from never handled them and we handle them very little. They are on a diet of Endive, Escarole, Dandelion leaves with Bok Choi, Mustard Greens and Turnip Greens mixed in every few days. They get Calcium sprinkled on their food 2x per week. They are each under a MVB and have been since the day we got them. The person before us didn’t have UVB on them at all, only heat.

I will warn you ... they hiss at me and tail whip me whenever I open up their enclosure to clean it or when I feed them. They are NOT Tame at all and probably won’t be able to tamed. And when I say Tame, I mean they probably will NEVER tolerate being handled, picked up or anything except for cleaning and vet visits. These two ARE NOT CUDDLY at all.

If you live in the WESTERN WASHINGTON OR NORTHERN OREGON AREA and would like to give these BEAUTIFUL Animals a new home, please contact me. We can make arrangement to meet or you can come and pick them up. NO ENCLOSURE OR ACCESSORIES ARE INCLUDED. AND .. there will be a rehoming fee for them, but that can be discussed once I am satisfied that you will give them a good home.

If you are interested ... Contact me via PM.

Good luck if you haven’t found homes yet, I’m in the same boat and I’ve found a rescue that is taking mine. Maybe you can look for something like that?

I am in a Herp Society and we have a Reptile Show in the area this coming weekend. ... the Society is doing a Consignment table, maybe I will bring them in for adoption. .... Then again, hubby finally got a job so maybe we’ll be able to keep them ... just have to find room for two more huge enclosures LOL
