How big do they get and also can you put one with a Russian?

If you hunt back through my threads there is also one regarding my Neighbour's Hermanns - Fred who is 120 years old and over 11 inches long...
I personally wouldn't mix the species up - agree with what Gary says regarding interbreeding etc, but also Hermanns are nowhere near as prevalent as they used to be, certainly in the UK, so I feel anybody breeding them should be trying to add to the species not mix it with another.IMO...obviously....
