In Reply to: Identifying wild lizards from captive bred posted by Netti on October 29, 2002 at 13:16:02:

a CB Uromastyx would be free of scars and tail damage, considering most breeders know they will not get a good price for "damaged goods". Not too many people breed Uromastyx in captivity. They are fairly high maintenance animals. Captive bred animals will be of good weight, overall external appearance will be healthy.A CB reptile will usually be much more expensive than a wild-caught. Many of the countries which have Uromastyx as native lizards are beginning to restrict their exportation. They will become less and less available.This could motivate stateside herp breeders into
taking an interest in the captive propagation of Uromastyx.
