	Awesome, Troy! I've never seen a Uromastyx like that. Thanks for sharing. Is thomasi the only species with a blunted tail like that?

	Uhhh I could be wrong because I don't keep up with uros very much at all but last time I saw a thomasi it was like $1,300 that's a lotta jack for a slightly larger sheild tail agama.

	As a side note that's a really nice looking landscape for a uro habitat

	To me the Uromastyx thomasi is one of the most beautiful Uromastyx species there is, way more so then a shield tail agama. But I am an Uromastyx person and beauty is in the eye of the beholder. As far as the price they are not available in the US that I know of and very few people have them in captivity at all. It is just like snakes, it is the rarity and beauty that dictates the price. I do agree with you on one thing however the landscaping does look very nice in there habitat.

	I don't know Uros well at all, but I think the pictures you posted are beautiful! Are they all the same animal, or are we looking at several?
