Well, regarding what are "able" to be housed together and what should be housed together can spawn a huge debate. The health of your animals should be first and foremost and housing animals together (even same species) although has been done by many people is not a suggested practice. You have issues like stress induced by the dominant of the group on the submissive, you have disease issues, you also have the problem if one regurges you won't be able to tell which one did it, and also you have cannibalism issues (this has been seen much more commonly lately due to people housing animals together, I can think of 4 instances where it has happened within the last 2 years that I know of)..
But to answer the question, it is best to only house same species together if you plan to do cohabitation enclosures.. ----- Randall L Turner Jr.
