My Somali Uromastyx died last night of unknown causes. (an autsopsy is being done to find out why and I'll know tomorrow hopefully) I got him at the TARAS show at the end of april. He was brought to the vets right away and was given a clean bill of health. He didn't eat too much right away but never refused food either. In the last week he started to eat more and more so I stopped worrying and was excited for when he started to put on weight! However yesterday when I went in to feed him he was gone. He must have died quickly because I had checked on him just hours before and he seemed fine. ??? Hopefully I'll find out why he died.
Azure was the pest reptile I have ever owned!!! When I walked into my reptile room and called his name he would run up his log and wait for me to let him out. He had a big jungle gym and got to sit on my shoulder while I watered everybody and whatever else I did in there. He would fall asleep in my hands when I petted his cheeks, eat out of my hands and watch the kingsnakes beside him, staring forever at the slither around. He will be missed sooooooooooo much and a piece of my heart goes with him.
RIP Azure
Farwell to Azure
