Hello! I'm not an iggy user, but much like Spyro and Sparks Mom ( Muffin says hi guys! ), I am the proud momma of a year old chinese water dragon. Though some water dragons will eat veggies and fruits, it's my understanding that it is few and far between. I know Muffin won't have anything to do with these ( and boy we have tried all kinds of tricks ). Pretty much, if it doesn't move, she won't even look at it. I think this would be one of the biggest problems housing the two together. It's my understanding that iggy's should not eat animal protien ( I learned this from your forum :-) ). Also, size could be an issue as well, don't igs like to lay on each other? I think size may become a problem as the ig keeps growing and the water dragon stops at about 3 1/2 feet...most of which is tail. I'd be worried about a squished water dragon. I've seen the babies housed together in pet shops, but like what was already said, that's got to be due to turn over rate ( even though it may not be the right thing to do ). Spyro? Sparks? You have anything to add here that I may have over looked? By the way, I love your guys forum!!! Hope you don't mind me peeking in!
