From many sources i have heard that it is absolutely terrible, from others i heard its fine. but, I am sticking with the fact that it all depends on how you introduce them. if you introduce them at a young age they are a lot more likely to get along better with the other bearded dragon. This is a picture i found from the results of an attempt at this:

Chipthe. It is NOT safe at all. I had two beardies that I got at the same time "sisters" and kept them in the same tank for a long time never separated them. During that time one got bigger and more controlling I guess you would say then the other but I didn't think anything by it until one day I put a thing of crickets in front of their cage "to feed then not thanking anything" an boom the bigger one tried to kill her sister. She snatched her up my the back of the neck and started flinging her around. I felt like the scum of the earth when that happened and I should of did what was right but I thought the same thing you did until it was to late. So there for it is NOT safe at all. No matter what age size nothing. KEEP them separated at all times. Think of them, think of their needs and safety. I really hope you reconsider what you're thanking..

Please do not listen to anyone stating having more than one dragon is ok under any instance. Believe me you are playing with fire and there is a leaking gas can right beside you. ;)

There is nothing saying you can't house them separately. However just because they are siblings does not mean one day one of them won't rip body parts off the other. Keep that thought in your mind. That will be your security after you separate them.

That was my point. I thought it was okay because their sisters but it wasn't. I didn't say it was okay to house siblings.
