Hi,
For some time now I've been wondering about this question: Are there any diseases that affect both lizards and snakes and are thus communicable? I imagine they'd be affected by the same parasites, but I'm not sure about disease.
The reason I ask is that I have a lot of wild geckos at my place and many of them come inside. I might also be getting a beardie and I'm wondering how to handle quarantine. Come to think of it, could a wild gecko make a captive beardie sick?
Thanks,
Renenet
