Javier refused to even go near this in the beginning, no matter what I tried. He does NOT like anything new and I've had to learn grow his different greens for him because he's that ridiculously picky.
It took a month of adding this to his various ledges, caves, and basking spots before he hesitantly tried it, while doing his Invisible Hula Hoop of Danger dance at it the whole time. Now, he absolutely loves this stuff and even tolerates me placing it around, without bolting to hide.
He's still testing the Uro Spice and Bloom, and I think he's just slower to trust anything new, but he's getting there.
This stuff is THE BEST, and it's the only other food he'll touch other than his greens & veggies.
My girl absolutely loves the Uro Grit. I will definitely be a repeat customer.
Seriously couldn’t ask for a better product!
New to Uro life and I can say.. The Grit is the only thing I am positive he will eat. I soak mine it expands, a teaspoon full and its all gone. Thank You..&TY.
Great product. An easy way to add necessary nutrients and variety to your animals diet. My Ctenosaura conspicuosa took to it right away.
I bought my nine month old uro the grit and the spice! He loves it! He really, really loves it. He would rather eat that than anything else! So I keep a small bowl of it in his enclosure and I sprinkle it on his greens so that he will get some moisture and hydration from eating fresh greens. I thought it might take trying it a few times to coax him into eating it or maybe skipping a couple days of his regular food days and then trying it, but it was a hit the second I put it in his enclosure. Glad I stocked up and bought the larger size packages on my first order! I highly recommend this stuff!
My Uro is very picky. He likes Uro Grit.
Packaged well, shipped quickly and enjoyed by my little uromastyx.
Thanks again !
My uro's love this stuff!
My Uros LOVE it!
Both of my uros absolutely love it, I would highly recommend it to anyone with arid reptiles.
My old man can't get enough of this. Don't worry we are feeding according to label
Seriously impressed, my sick Uro won’t stop eating it!
My sweet Cleveland LOVES this stuff. He swipes his greens away to get to it so now his UroGrit is a small snack on one of his rocks. I can’t recommend this enough. I love knowing, in addition to his greens, he is getting the best diet.
So far he’s loving it! Thank you 🙏
My Moroccan loves the stuff, between this and the Spice she sleeps in her food bowl, and now taps it during the day demanding that "the spice must flow".
So far he seems to like it. Will pick it out of his greens
Great fast service from Arids Only!
My Uromastyx go nuts for the Grit!! This was my second order
My uro loves it!! She jumps out of the cage to get it!
Incredible high quality product. The owner reached out to me directly to discuss the product. How to use it when to use it. Definitely the greatest experience I've ever had with an online only purchase. I could not thank them enough for the advice and high quality product.They provided and an incredible price.
My uromastyx loved it! It must smell good as well as tasting good, because she didn’t even hesitate when she approached the dish: she dug right in.
Uro Grit is a great India, thank you.
My Mali and Egyptian Uro’s love it!
My uro really seems to love it, great blend.
My uromastyx LOVES it!
Amazing my uro loves it so much.
Great product. My Uromastyx love it.
My two uros love this stuff!
10/10 product. Great mix of clean naturalistic ingredients, nutrients, and roughage. My juvenile Chuckwalla cleans the plate every time and has developed a strong preference for Uro Grit to chase a meal of greens and will even seek it out after only a couple of weeks of semi regular feedings.
Excellent Product.
