ok so is any other lizard species safe with a bearded dragon? mine likes to eat sideblotches so would he be ok with any tankmates? just name some, tank size doesnt matter for me, i am looking into building a custom tank anyway so just name some he might be good with. he is a def male if that helps and about 19 inches long, 6 years old, i dunno if that changes anything. thnx
 
Nope. Beardies as a species are just to voracious, they cannot be mixed really, otherwise there are bound to be deaths. Even then, I personally have to insist that other lizards should not be mixed at all. But beardies, definitely no.
 
i know some people who keep their beardies with uromastyx, but i personally wouldnt mix spp. together.
 
ok just wondering, the lfs has some babies mixed in with uromastyx and a few random african agama species. thought it was a cool mix
 
NO NO NO NO NO. There a bad match unlike you see alot. All uromastyx people (including me) SWEAR that is a HORRIBLE idea. There diet requirements are different as if the uro eats a insect it could kill him. ALSO there temp requirements are different as the uro will need temps up too 120-130 F.
 
LOL. Note for you, whatever you see in a pet shop, unless you can personally substantiate it with your own evidence and fact, is bull****. Never do what pet shops like that do.
