Hi everyone Luke and Ez here.

we are new on here and need your help urgently.

we just recently set up a nice big 5foot tank with four baby Pogogna henrylawsoni pygmy beardies but are having big troubles with them fighting and biting each other. we've had them for a little over 2months and they were supposedly 6weeks when we got them? according to everyone we've spoken to so far we have plenty of room and food for them and cannot understand why they are fighting so much seeing we were told that they would all be fine together. initially we were only going to get two but the breeder talked us into more as we couldn't introduce more later on but it seems to be these two who are doing all the biting. we would set up separate tanks but cannot afford this so do we get rid of them? right now i'm happy to give them away before someone loses a toe or foot.

help please!!!

Luke and Ez
 
Dominance is always an issue with dragons. They will all be fighting for the best basking spot, territory etc.
They will need to be seperated or you may come home to non living beardies.
If you look up "the reptile doctor" it will show the damage they can do to each other
 
If not separated the loss of a limb is not an if but a when - eventually the dominant ones are capable of killing the others. Either sell them or give them away if you can't afford to set them up individually.
 
Seperate them.

Can you not build a break into the 5ft tank as a temporary fix?
