The one looks like a leopard. You do know it's a bad idea to mix species right?
The enclosure looks nice. Might want to bury the water dish level with the ground unless they don't have a problem drinking from it. Hard to tell their actual size.
I would separate the two though. Don't want to be sorry.

One's a Eastern Hermanns and the other is a Leopard. :)
They don't really spend much time together, just a few hours in their outside 4x8 pen. I've always let them forage as they wish (with my supervision of course when they aren't in their pen). Next year they should be big enough to open the other side of the pen which would then measure 8'x8'.
They spend most of their time inside in separate enclosures.

The time they are together could still cause problems if they pee or poop and the other comes in contact or eats the grass. If you have another section already put one in each to be safe.
