I don't think that would be too great? The Sulcata will quickly outgrow the others....hmmmm, wait and see here what other say for other opinions maybe ... :p

You should not house different species together. For many reasons one is that the sulcata will outgrow and may inadvertently injure the russians.

Also, Russians, besides being very territorial, may carry "bugs" that the sulcata may get sick from (and vice versa).

Keep 'em seperate.

I agree. Different species should be housed separately.
