 Armored skink+BTS

A few years ago i had a blue tongued skkink and now my little brother wants to get a lizard. We were wondering if a Armored/Crocodile Skink and a BTS could live together if they were the same sizes... even for a year or so befor they big to the point they would need a new cage anyway... THANKS!!!

I would not house different species together unless you had a tank for them the size of your house with plenty of hides.

Absolutely not, unless you want the armored skink to be eaten. BTS are usually born 3-4" long and quickly grow to about 15-18" the first year. Armored skinks stay what 6" their whole lives? Also, look at their care requirements. Dont really require the same environments!
