: i have 3 one year old iguanas and two babies. can i keep them all in the same cage as a mali uromastyx? plmk. thanks

Please do not....besides the fights that are bound to happen (read as possible serious injury, or death to some of the animals) Iguanas and uro's have extremely different care requirements! Iguanas need a very humid environment, while uro's are desert lizards. Some one will suffer health wise.

Also, as your iguanas grow, they might (probably) need separate enclosures. Males should never be housed together, and some male and female pairs cannot as well. Male iguanas can and will inflict serious wounds on another iguana if they feel threatened, or simply for territory domination.
