mate i wouldnt keep gippys with eastern waterys as they will interbreed giving u mongrels that arent one or the other anymore,its hard enough finding homes for pure ones of either type,i have left overs from the last 3 seasons,lol,anyways u can keep alot of large skinks with water dragons out doors,also bearded dragons,as long as there all reasonably sized that there not potential food for each other they do well,also if its warm enough where u are from u can add mertons water monitors to the list,are u talking indoors or out,indoors i wouldnt keep anything with them as the waterys will trample them,unless u have a huge cage,not talking 6x2x2 foot either,more like a walkin type cage u could keep mertons again,i wouldnt try beardys as the beardys stress from the water dragons trampling them as the waterys will dominate

anyways i keep my water dragons outdoors with blotched and eastern blueys,cunningham skinks and eastern long necked tortises

Depends if you want to successfully breed the other lizards. EWDs will prey on the offspring of the other lizards and their own as they hatch.
I got rid of my adults only to have half a dozen juvies emerge. They all had some of their tail missing.

I keep my EWD's outside year round in a large bird aviary with Bluetongues and Sleepie's, there is also a large pond in there that has shadecloth going into it on 1 side as these 2 skinks can't swim very well and this helps them get out. they have all lived together peacefully for 2 years now.

hi there guys! i was wondering what you thought of putting turtles i with say EWD, beardies and maybe some bluetongs? the place i work for is imprting this new technology called organic pools, basically its swimming pools with fish, turtles, plants etc and i wanted to do this on a smaller scale in my beardies cage and bring in these other animals as well, what do people think?

Cunninghams IMO are the ultimate pit lizard, they thrive on very little.
