I have never had problems mixing species of reptiles that have the same requirements and are of equal size. I suppose if one gets cheap sick reptiles {or fish} and does not quarantine them first one would have many problems regaurdless. It boils down to cage size. If one tries to put too many herps in the same small cage, there will be problems just like keping too many fish, mammals, insects, arachnids, birds, molluscs, etc. Its common sense.
I am tired of these blanket statements meant to keep people from making stupid mistakes, but just because one doesnt have time to fully answer and explore the person's question, doesnt give the "experts" a good reason to just say "no". Others who are at different levels of herp keeping may take these statements as absolute, and they are not, believe me. If you get tired of the same questions, dont answer them.
