Bearded Dragon Behaviours
| |
When you have the chance to observe several dragons who are able to interact with each other on a daily basis many of their behaviours begin to make more sense. |

I have been able to observe some of my adult female dragons while they have the ability to free roam within a controlled environment. They do seem to have a pecking order of dominance and learn to respect their level of heirarchy within the colony. They tend to mind their own business and not cause problems between themselves as long as they have enough space available. This is why it is necessary to have a fairly large enclosure for a dragon and why it is not recommended for dragons to share an enclosure. In some cases dragons will get along but there is no way to know who will get along with who. |

Usually no two dragons will get along right from the start unless you just get lucky. If dragons are raised with other dragons, there is a better chance they will tolerate one another but they will still need ample space. Along with personality types, they seem to display a difference in mood from time to time which can bring uncertainty by the day. Just because they seem to be best pals one day doesn't mean they will act the same way a week later. Eventually one or the other will gain dominance until they all know their places. Once they become adults the females will then keep their space and usually mind their own business. The only issue that arises from time to time is the basking spot take over. |
