    I've had my 2 new Mali Uromastyx's for 2 days now, and since i have got them, they have only been mostly sleeping. I haven't seen them really even move around their cage except maybe once or twice. They haven't eaten yet and I am SO scared! Please Please PLEASE help me! Thank you

    I dont know much about them at all
    But i think its universal that for the first week or so, most new reptiles are scared out of their mind.
    They usually wont eat, or move around alot .
    Give it time, and if it persists seek proffesional help for them

    Integral part of helping with any reptile question- how is your cage set up? From there we should be able to see if something is wrong, or if they're just getting adjusted.

    Two days is not long enough for them to have adjusted to a new envirnment. I'd give them up to a week before you worry about them not eating. What are you trying to feed them?
