I was lucky enough to find a uro care sheet on a site while looking for something else that gave numerous latin names including what might be shown in this video. Do you know the latin for yours? I think I bookmarked it.
Does it specify why they get larger in the wild? You would think the opposite since captive animals are generally healthier and better fed than their wild counterparts.

I'm not sure why they get larger in the wild, they live a very long time so I've heard some people say that the wild caught ones are just significantly older and keep getting bigger with age.
The latin names are uromastyx aegyptius and there is a subspecies called uromastyx aegyptius microlepis. They aren't as colorful as the other kind of uro's but I think they make up for it with their personality
