Can a bearded dragon share a cage with a ball python?

Question by Kyle: Can a bearded dragon share a cage with a ball python?

I have 3 ball pythons, and I would like to get a bearded dragon. Has anybody ever tried to house these together? I have two of my pythons in one cage, and the baby is by himself. I have tried to search fo this with no luck. Thank you for any help you can offer.
Thank you! I guessed as much, but I figured it couldn’t hurt to ask. Anyway, I appreciate the fact that ya’ll responded so quickly! I’ll keep ‘em separated.

It is not going to work. Ball pythons are tropical and beardies are a dry arid species lizard. Reptiles are best housed by themselves. A ball python could make a meal of a bearded dragon if it is hungry enough.

    It’s not a good idea.
    They have way different habitat needs and you run the risk of them hurting each other.
    Ball pythons are tropical reptiles, bearded dragons are desert animals.That alone makes them impossible to keep together.

    Are you serious? Regardless of habitat, what do you think a snake would do to a lizard?

    (answer. eat it!) Just checking cos I’m not sure how low your IQ is
