I would be very careful about mixing species period, but especially mixing two species with drastically different care requirements. Curly Tail lizards need higher humidity and lower temps than do chucks, their diet is very different, and their size is significantly different. Then there is the added difference in activity level that could stress both species out. If you had said chucks and desert iguanas, I would say that is doable because they come from the same place and have very similar dietary and environmental needs, but not chucks and curly tails. JMHO.

Here is another thought. You just got those WC chucks stable, but they are probably not completely adjusted. That really takes up to years, and they could turn any time if they get stressed. Why would you risk upsetting them again by putting a potentially incompatible species in with them? I wouldn't.
