Bearded dragons are solitary animals who do best when housed alone. In the wild they come together only long enough to mate and then go their separate ways. Keeping two or more together often results in a great deal of stress as well as potential physical injury for one or both dragons.

If you decided to breed dragons first of all you would have to do a great deal of research. It's a [b]very[b] expensive and time consuming prospect if done properly, and you should know the genetic background of both dragons five generations back in order to ensure that you're not breeding related dragons and further weakening the north amercian dragon gene pool.

And to more specifically answer your question, you house the two dragons separately and only put them together for as long as it takes for them to physically mate and then you separate them again.

I have two females that live in the same cage as one male. they are all about 2 years old. I would say 90% of the time they get along well. When the male is in the mood and all beareded out him will chase them around the cage until he gets what he wants or gets tired of the females blowing him off. Since he is not really as large as the females I guess he takes what he can get. The rest of the time I dont notice and real dominance with these 3three. They have grown up in cages right next to each other and bee to gether in the summer in the outdoor pen so mayb they jsut get along in this case.
