    I've heard of green tree pythons and poison dart frogs living together fine. But idk if it's actually okay, may cause stress for one or the other.

    Housing 2 different reptiles in the same cage is rarely a good idea. Leopard geckos and BP's don't even have the same cage requirements.

    Yeah I didn't think they had the same husbandry. I guess this guy has just been lucky theyve both been healthy.

    U, yeah that would be a no go in my book. Leapord geckos need a lot more heat and less humidity, balls need less heat and more humidity. How he is compensating this wouldn't work. One also needs light I beloeve the other doesn't.
