I just aquired 3 beaded lizards. They are about 2 years of age. I house them seperate. I was thinking of setting up an 8ft x 3ft x 2ft enclosure. Would it be ok to house them together in an enclosure that size?

I'd really like to know the answer here, too. I'm thinking of getting a pair of beadeds and have seen recommendations for caging all the way from 1.5'x3' to the standard response of 'twice the length of the inhabitant'.
I'm considering raising them and would like to buy/build a cage once, rather than one for babies, then building for adults.
Will a 6x3 work for a pair? And it seems like undertank heating is best - but should we add UV/heat lamps to simulate real world (to the degree that can be accomplished within a cage)?
