Jason mixing species is a very bad idea this isn't a community fish tank. Mixing Lizards is a bad idea for many reasons. One compatibility if the lizards are not compatiblethey could fight and kill or injure one another or they could just be bothering one another to a point that stresses the animal and eventually kills it and you won't even know why the animal died. Another point to consider is many species harbor diseases and or parasites that, that species can deal with they have naturally become immune to it taking them to a vet for a checkup cannot solve this problem as the vet won't even be able to tell the disease is there. Then when you put that lizard thats lets say is from madagascar with a lizard from Brazil then the other lizard could get sick. Hope I didn't come down to hard on you but please for the sake of the animal please don't mix species.
