Hey hey again.
So I've got another animal to get rid of.. my lizard. It's a uromastyx, and I've had him for 4 or 5 years or so. I got him because I thought he was really cute (haha) and unfortunately lately he's been a little neglected, I just don't have the time to keep up with his "regimen".
He's a pretty neat looking lizard. The only downside, like I said, is he does require a bit of care.. fresh green leaf lettuce every day, a dozen or two crickets at least once a week. He also needs his light on for 8-12 hours a day, but you can set a light timer for that. He also needs a "bath" once a week.. he's a desert lizard, so once a week you have to put him in the tub with an inch or two of water, so he can absorb a bunch of it and get re-hydrated. He also likes to get out of his cage every few days to run around and exercise.
I have pretty much everything that he needs.. big tank with all the accessories (sand, a log to hide under, some stuff to climb on), along with the light for the tank.
I don't have an picture of him, but here's a picture of one that looks identical to him:

So yeah. If anyone is interested or has questions, just let me know. I'd just like to get this guy to someone who will appreciate him and take the time to spoil him. :)
