I keep Podarcis Muralis and Sicula in the same reptilliary that is 5mtrs x 4mtrs, and have done for several years with no problems. The occasional chase around the rocks etc. in the breeding season, but no real trouble. Both are breeding

Hi. My name is Ken,and I live in Kent. I have just joined this forum. I have two large, un-heated reptilliary's in my garden, both with small ponds, and I have kept Bombina Orientalis in one for several years with some successful breeding. I have just aquired three young Bombina Bombina that I keep in the other. This rep. contains many Podarcis Muralis and Sicula that breed every year and there are also a couple of Sceleporus Cyanogenys that I purchased this year. These I new nothing about but was informed that they do hibernate but I have since discovered that this is normally for a very short period. Have to see how they do. Also in this rep. there are Triturus Cristatus that are breeding. In the other rep. I have several Timon Lepida, two Stellagama Stellio. After changing the pond for a larger one in this rep. I discovered, hiding beneath, a Pleyrodeles Waltl that I hadn't seen for 2/3 years. This may be the reason I havent had and Bombina tadpoles for a while

I have just made a 5x2 meter vivarium and will be adding some wall lizards. probably captured near Folkestone. There are lots of piles of rocks and hiding places. Would I be advised to keep one pair only? I was thinking about territoriality. Would they be compatible with common lizards? I have a slightly larger reptilliary than you and I have something like 10 or 12 Podarcis Muralis (Wall Lizard) and four Podarcis Sicula (Wall/Ruin Lizards), in together, plus recently hatched babies that I haven't been able to catch, plus 2 or 3 Sceloporous Cyanogenys, Triturus Cristatus and Bombina Bombina. Some not very serious in-fighting occurs occasionally but no damage. Not like keeping Timon Lepida together (which I do in another reptilliary) where tails are lost on a regular basis. All the animals in both of my reptilliarys over-winter outside with no artificial heating and they are all doing well
