I have a question regarding the possibilty of disease being spread between different types of reptiles.
I currently work with Chelonians only(turtles and tortoises). I recently purchased several Red Eyed Crocodile Skinks and am somewhat concerned about the possbility of transferring disease to my turtles/tortoises.
In general are reptile diseases and parasites species specific or can they be freely transferred from one type of reptile to another?
Thanks for the help
Jackie
