If I have 2 juveniles living in the same tank what does it mean if they lick each other??
No dragons should be kept together unless you are breeding them!!!!!!!!!! Period!! Dragons are territorial and will turn on each other in a instant and one will become dominant and take over all basking areas and food!! Please separate them ASAP---- if they are two males they will fight till one is dead or severely maimed two females one will become dominant over the other one and male /female the male will constantly want to breed making the female stressed out all the time --- the need their own space!!

And it doesn’t matter the age of them at all

I’m just asking because they have been together for about a month and all is well..
Soon they will be going thru hormones I dont know what sex they are but they MUST be separated --- babies are fine but usually arent kept together unless someone buys two at a time and keep them together it is still not wise --- please get them separated ASAP --

Even if they are young and everything seems fine, they are still asserting dominance in ways you may not notice. The bigger one may eat first and get the best food, basking areas, etc., and they'll end up biting digits off of each other.
