Answer
Hello Hannah,

Unfortunately, there are no options.  Bearded dragons do not house well with any other type of species.  It is not recommended to mix different species together either due to zoonotic problems.  
Uros require a much hotter & drier environment than a bearded dragon does so that wouldn't work out.
Bearded dragons normally do much better housed alone.  I am sorry as I am sure that was not the answer you were hoping for.  I am just trying to save you a lot of heartache as well as money.
