keeping babies together?

[bsauce23]

Hey guys,
Me and my roommate are really considering getting a pair of bearded dragons. One would be mine and one would be his. Right now I have a 40 gallon breeder tank with all the accessories and a mega ray sb bulb. We are wondering if it is okay to keep the two babies together in my tank until my roommate has the finances to purchase his own equipment. In other words, is it okay to house babies together and if so, for how long approximately is it okay for?
Thanks!

its going to depend greatly on how much you know about dragons and how perceptive you are with their actions and mannerisms
dominance and violence can start at any age.

you should take a look at this

Wellll... that is a sticky subject sweety. It depends on a whole lot of things...
what I would suggest, if you do indeed go that route, separate the tank so each has half, and shares the mega. This is only a temp situation, not to last longer than a couple of weeks, tops. If that is out of the question, then don't consider getting the second until a second separate enclosure is set up and waiting.

I wouldn't recommend getting two beardies and housing them together. I always like to stay on the side of caution. And if finances are an issue, you should give it some really deep thought about purchasing the babies. First, babies eat a lot and if a vet visit is needed, it is pretty costly.

I am just agreeing with everybody else!! Good luck...
