I google'd and I couldn't really find any helful links but heres the question
I have a ball python (approx 5 feet long, female ,very calm and very gentle, she is 5 years old)
and a bearded dragon (around 2 feet long , male, very nice calm and not aggresive , he is around 2 years old)

I was wondering if I could like say put both of them on my bed/Play with both of them at the same time? Or they are going to be agresive towards eachother.

I dunno if it helps at all but I had the snake in my hand and the dragon was in his vivarium and they looked at eachother then ignored eachother (snake was outside the vivarium) and they showed no sign of aggresion

Obviously if there is a high risk of bad things happening I will not try to have them close to eachother but can I even try? iso advices :)

Probably depends if either of the pet is hungry or not I'd imagine? haha

I wouldn't trust it, I'd imagine the ball python would be squeezing the thing down.
But I have no firsthand knowledge of either animals, just that I've heard some aggressive stories about both kinds individually.

i wouldnt put them together. the only thing i see coming out of that is the python wrapping that thing up and you not being able to do anything about it. play with them one at a time. no reason to risk it. even if it didnt act aggressive when you tried, it might get hungry one day. i own a bearded dragon, a chinese water dragon, 2 red eyed tree frogs, have had a python, have had a rainbow boa, and other various pets... keep them apart for your bearded dragons sake.

ps feeding your snake dead rats/ mice instead of live ones will make it less aggressive and less likely to go after something alive and moving. just incase you didnt know.

vouch. same with monitors. if it aint insects, i only feed dead food.
every dragon is different. one of my dragons is really chill. my other dragon....if it aint human, he is attacking it, regardless of size. he wont bite me or snap or tail whip, but if he sees anything else alive, he goes crazy!!
but yeah...i see no reason why you should put em together ever

You need to flip the names. Spyro is a dragon's name
