I was wasting time today at a pet shop and saw a few of these. They are sweet hearts! I held a couple of them for around 20 minutes. They are so cute! I'am going back in a few days for one of them. I just fell in love with them. I can't help myself [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Well, I personally think they're ugly little things, but I guess there are so many reptiles, everyone can find something they like.

The main point is, you're feeding your herp addiction! [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

J..The cuteness is actually in their actions not really in their looks. They have got quite a character to them that makes just observing them an interesting specimen to observe.
NOW..as for FUGLY..Take a look at them leaf-tailed geckos... hehe

aww that is sweet that you have a passion for these creatures I have one it is about 3 years old now and they are so sweet, But they like it where it is very hot so make sure you have good lighting and heat. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

The quickest way to a Uro's heart is with snow peas!

I love my little uros...well, they're getting pretty big now....and my male is getting that cocky uro brovado I love so much! Stomping around the cage, strutting his stuff,,tipping things over...good times.

A lot of people are put off because as babies, they're as fast as greased lightning...but once they reach adulthood they calm down and don't really have a care in the world...other than food, and who gets the best basking spot, of course. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

yes i think uros are cute. just like bearded dragons, the way they look at you and cock their head. my best friend has one, and loves him. she says when she wakes up he is sitting there waiting for his food..lol wierd, but true..he puts his face against the glass and sits there, just looking around waiting for someone to walk by. its pretty funny to watch.

see tho , the thing with uro's is that they are so darn ugly it makes em cute. but other than that they are just like beardies with their personalities and what not.
