Western Hermann's and Russian together outside?

[daniel laggner]

A friend of mine wants me to adopt his adult Russian. I have a 100 square foot enclosure that only has my 3yo female western hermann's in it.

I know it's not a good idea to mix species, but I'd love to give this Russian a good home.

Thoughts?

Thanks all!

Species should not mix. Depending on the dimensions of your enclosure, make it into two. One Russian should have at the bare minimum a 4x8 foot enclosure.

You could section off a portion or half of the enclosure? Maybe like a 20*20 or something. Then they could share the space you have but not be together.

I'd separate the space - you have enough room to house both in that space, so section off a portion of it for the Russian.
