Your Questions Answered
What are the primary enclosure requirements for this juvenile?
A minimum 40-gallon breeder tank is advised for a juvenile, with a basking spot surface temperature of 115-120°F and an ambient cool side in the 80s. Low humidity (10-30%) and full-spectrum UVB lighting are non-negotiable for proper bone development and digestion. Provide a deep substrate for burrowing and multiple hiding spots.
What is it currently eating, and how often should I feed it?
This juvenile is feeding on a daily mix of chopped collard/mustard greens, dandelion greens, and a small amount of millet or commercial uromastyx pellets. Fresh food should be offered daily; juveniles require more frequent feeding than adults. Always provide a shallow dish of clean water, though they primarily hydrate from food.
How should I prepare for its arrival?
Have the complete enclosure set up and running for at least 48 hours to stabilize temperatures and gradients before the animal arrives. Upon receipt, place it gently in the enclosure and limit handling for 5-7 days to allow for acclimation. Offer food and water as normal but do not be concerned if it does not eat on the first day.
