If you can't provide a cage for an animal don't purchase it!

I know this sounds like pissing and moaning but I'm tired of seeing posts that ask the ridiculous quesiton can I house a Boa and a Carpet python together, can I house a Green Iguana and a Savanah monitor together, can I house a Tegu and a Green Iguana together just for a little while? The answer is NO, NO, and NO! I'm going to post this message in every forum (yeah right I do have a life). I can appreciate newbies to the reptile seen but there is countless litature out there about a variety of lizards, snakes, frogs, turtles, etc.. that say the same thing most herps should be kept seperate unless breeding, and ONLY SAME SPECIES SHOULD BE KEPT TOGETHER. Its a different story if you are providing a habitat something similar to a zoo exhibt but I don't think the people asking these questions are them. Any way please purchase an individual spacious habitat for your wonderful herp friend, and remember your new friend came from a place with no glass walls, screen tops, stained plywood boxes or something called a "REPTARIUM".
Just my thoughts.
