I doubt it. From what I know they are WAY too different to live together. You should also not house different species together because there could be big problems like one killing the other and such.

I wouldn't do it. They originate from different parts of the world (even if the ones you buy are cb) and have different diets, uros are herbivores, bds are omnivores. Mixing reptile species almost always ends up with someone being stressed, sick or injured. They are both nice lizards and well worth keeping but only in separate enclosures.

Different species, Seperate enclosures. Enough said.

Country:
like others have said, definately seperate enclosures. They have different requirements, and even if they didn't..it's not very smart to have two different species in the same tank.

They have totally different bacteria in their digestive tracts and should be kept separately so that they don't get infected with each other's gut flora.
