Re: Meet.......
Lovely looking dragons, and ace names! You are going to have to be very careful with them though and be prepared to separate them if any trouble arises. Dragons of different sizes shouldn't really be housed together. The bigger is likely to become dominant over the smaller and may bully the smaller away from food and heat. If the size difference gets any bigger I would split them if I were you, although I wouldn't keep dragons with such a size difference together at all anyway. Splitting them will give the smaller a chance to grow properly. Although you will need to have a spare set up on hand regardless, if they turn out to be 2 males or a male and female then they will need to be separated.
I'm not keen on people selling 2 babies together really. Unless very experienced you can't sex a dragon as a baby so your taking pot luck on what you get. 2males is a big no no, male and female again is a big no no, 2 females should get on providing they are the same size (still no guarantee though). Sorry for the essay!

Good luck with them, just beware as others have said about the dominance...I have 2 adult females who live together perfectly, but you have to just keep an eye out for any dominating behaviour. Am sure they'll do fine ![]()

Re: Meet.......
Try putting a few mealworms in the food bowl so the veg is wriggling...it's often the case that the veg is just still and boring to them so they won't touch it.
Are you supplimenting with calcium? How much do they generally eat anyway? And what veg are you giving them? lol, sorry for all the questions ![]()
