I don't necessarily believe that having a lizard of a different species increased production. I will say this however, when I have 30 pairs of day geckos producing eggs and one tank produces significantly more eggs than the others my instinct is to not mess with that cage unless the health of the female is being compromised from overproduction. If that means leaving another animal in the cage against the so called conventional wisdom then so be it. One thing I learned early on with day geckos is once they start producing eggs for the year the best way to keep up production is to stay out of the cages.
I will also stand by what I said before, if you are keeping multiple species in the same room or even the same house you are still housing them together as far as pathogens are concerned. It matters very little if they are in different tanks. Those of us who actually have experience as opposed to what we read on the internet or in some reptile magazine (do they still have those?) are well aware of that.
