All right complicated story. I was lizard sitting my brothers G. major, while they got moved into Houston. However, his cage got broken in the move; completly destroyed. Now, I have a small sav monitor in a large (5X3X3) cage; he's about 30" all told, the G. major is about 20. He's really big. I know they're both parasite free, as I got the sav from Pro Exotics years ago, and my brother got his lizard from a decent shop. Fecals came back clean and all, and he's not been exposed to parasites since. Given that both are large diurnal desert lizards, there are similarites in care. I was wondering about housing them together temporarily. I know it's not great but the alternitive is a spare 20 long that I've got. This will probably be for about a month or so. I just need to know if the sav will try and eat him (seems too big to do so, but..)



Thanks
