Uromastyx ornata hatched!

June 25, 2016

Last week the clutch of 10 uromastyx ornata eggs hatched! Here are some pictures of them getting some sunlight today. Hatchling ornates are so beautiful with such bright colors and arabesque patterns.

Dug up another clutch of Ornate Uromastyx eggs today. Interestingly the female was imported with an injured eye. Even though it healed she is blind in that eye. The yearling male in the first 2 pictures is her son from last season. #aridsonly #lizard

The first clutch of Uromastyx for 2024 have started hatching. #aridsonly #lizards #lizardsofinstagram #reptiles #reptilesofinstagram #uromastyx #uromastyxofinstagram #uromastyxornata #ornateuromastyx #herpetoculture

The baby Butterfly Agamas are really starting to gain momentum in their appetite. The scarf everything that moves and they also enjoy dandelion petals. #aridsonly #lizards #lizardsofinstagram #reptiles #reptilesofinstagram #leiolepis #leiolepisrubrit

Uromastyx Ornata. All the ones pictured hatched from May-August 2023. All are males. Many are brothers or half brothers. The first animal is a 4th generation CB here at my shop. #aridsonly #lizards #lizardsofinstagram #reptiles #reptilesofinstagram #

Two different Horned Lizards I photographed 7 years ago in Anza Borrego and Joshua Tree parks. I haven’t been able to get outside CO for herping in a number of years, I’ve been missing the fun. #aridsonly #lizards #lizardsofinstagram #rep
