Fellow Okie here! Great content! Just got a uromastyx, would love a video on "Just brought a uromastyx home" that details common behaviors of a uromastyx in a new environment/home.
Nice! Okie gang! Yes that is a great idea thank you! Will start on this video
I second that! Great idea.
I just discovered this channel and I’ve been watching it with juvenile uromastyx we both like this channel.
Awesome, awesome video. Thank you for putting stuff like this out there. There's not enough information about Uromastyx and is much, much needed.
Appreciate you my man! Yes I agree it’s so little info out there man I need to grind lots of info out
Great video! Thanks for this.
happy to help
Very informative, good stuff 💪🏼
Thank you
Yay, new video!
Trying to push more out!
@@ChiefSweetsUniverse don't overwork yourself. also could i please get a shout ought at the very end of your next I'm a new reptile channel and i would appreciate it.
Petco started working with a breeder captive breeds them. I just bought mine hence me making sure I have everything I need to make sure he feels nice and safe
Whoa that’s crazy petco has also started working with joshes frogs which is pretty mind blowing as well. Good stuff
Awesome video brother keep it going.
Appreciate you
it always really good to refresh all this info. i still need some help setting up rocks and burks! great video
Thank you!
I just enjoy watching you’re videos so much you teach me so much I learn more and more for my bearded dragon thank you and keep up the good work 😁
that means a lot thank you
Great video 😁
Thank you 🙏
he said im returning these to petsmart. THIS IS ONLY A TEST! love it and its awesome information
Haha had to keep it real
Great video! I'm looking to acquire one of these guys in the next few days. With your excavator clay, do you add water as you mix with the sand and soil?
Also, any recommendations for feeding? (How many times per day and what to give it). Thanks!
I do have a feeding guide for these guys as well but yes I do add water to the clay and mix
I have a question. I'm getting a bearded dragon, and I wanted to know if I can use salt clay to build a hideout and a basking platform? Is it safe for a bearded dragon?
Thanks for the video, I learned alot! also, just out of curiosity, if i wanna mix play sand into my substrate do i need to clean it somehow?
No you don’t. It can be dusty so some people will wash it with water that does help tremendously
Awesome info. Can you release a video on uromastyx lighting setup? Not a lot of up to date videos on here.
You got it! Definitely will!
Do you think I should still get a UVB lamp even if they get natural sunlight everyday here in South Florida?
if you keep them outside in natural light no need for uvb but they need minimum two hours of exposure
Hey me again what websites can we get the correct lamps for our dragons
I have some linked in my Amazon storefront. There’s also Pangea reptile and reptile basics as well
Cool video 😎 I was wondering if you could do one on blue tounge skinks as there not many videos on them and how to set up tanks for them!
Definitely want to asap!
Kinda off topic, but I didn’t know if you’d respond but I want an Asian forest scorpion and my house sits anywhere from 69-75 degrees. Is this well enough or should I get an additional heat source?
Yeah that’ll be fine
I'm getting a uromastyx and it's my first reptile. I got the Eco Earth substrate which the pet store said would be good but I keep seeing mixed reviews. Also my thermometer gives me reads of 91F but how do I get the basking area hotter?
No eco earth sucks get rid of it. I would use sand mixed with reptisoil or top soil. Not calcium sand as well. Reptisand or play sand. Is the thermometer reading 91f or the temp gun pointing at the basking spot? If it’s basking spot temp with temp gun readings use two heat lamps 100-150watt make sure not to get too hot. Basking spot shouldn’t be above 130f
@ChiefSweetsUniverse Got it, thanks so much!
Hello I was wondering do you think zoo med cavern kit is good for uromastyx?
Yeah that’s good but it does have only a small amount of clay. You want like 40 pounds of the clay to do anything good
@@ChiefSweetsUniverse ah ok thank you bro
If I get a good temp with 1 100w bulb can I get the same temp using 2 50W bulbs (reptile bulbs)?
yeah that will work if not switch back but it should
Great. Thanks
Im teying to find your discord! Im trying to reach out for some heating bulb heat regulation in my 4x2x2 followed all ur instructions buttt i cant seem to get the cool side hot enough my hot side is at 93-96 cold side 75 and my beardie will go lay on the cold side and then fall asleep because shes so cold to the touch its been making her very lazy and shes been such an active beardie before the tank switch from a 40 gallon. PLEASEEE RESPOND 🥲
Hello my discord is in the description of the video. You could use a deep heat projector on the cool side to boost up some air temps
Hello! Me again! Would this enclosure work for a bear die? Also yay another amazing video!!🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤
This enclosure wouldn’t work as much because beardies are more arboreal (like to climb trees and hang up in trees) and uromastyx aren’t as much and like burrows daily.
Hey my last bearded dragon died and my mom is thinking about getting me another for my birthday and this time I’m doing all me research and I wanna know how big of an enclosure I would need for 500 crickets so I can get them cheap in bulk
I use a 10 gallon tank for mine. Sorry to hear about your dragon
ok thx
Could Uromastyx Ocellata do well in 48 X 18 inch?
They can if it’s height wise it helps with getting temps better.
@@ChiefSweetsUniverse ok thank you
At night, can everything be turned off?
Yes everything off at night
awesome video. is it harder to take care of a uromastyx than a bearded dragon and a gecko??? or is it about the same???
I think it’s honestly the same but it depends lots of uromastyx are wild caught. The wildcaught are the hard ones to take care of. The captive ones are so easy. Maybe the easiest out of all
I really recommend checking out Phil Lietz' guides on uromastyx keeping! He's one of the most knowledgeable keepers I can think of, has a TON of info on them.
Coop
The top for them 40 are stupid, neede to be one whole screen
Exactly
hey man! i know this has nothing to do with this video but just want to make sure you see this. currently got better lights for my bearded dragons. their old lights were the zoo med long hood ones? don’t know if i explained that right. one of them has a stick on the bottom saying W12 and the other light says U16 i have no clue what that means
Hmm not sure what that is either you can send me a message on Instagram or join the discord and send pics of what it is
