If there's some, that's enough. (And if there are two or more, there is some.) Never mind that a person can't watch them 24/7 so you don't really know what other nonviolent but equally stressful events are occurring bc u see no blood...Females especially mine for some reason sleep together and go together and eat. It all depends on tortoise personality but if male and female together bet your sorry butt seperation is a must or the female get hurt.
I hear and seen females show dominance for food or territory or to show whos boss but rarely mine. If keeping more than one you must have great knowledge and experience and have multiple set ups for the tortoises incase seperation is necessary. Breeding attempts should not be tried unless very experienced and carefully thought out and care taken for the tortoises not to be harm in process.
Anys hi everyone ! im back
Be kind. Be responsible. Anyone housing these solitary creatures together when it IS NOT good for them, should spare them the stress--and since we are actually aware that this isn't the way they should be housed, there is no excuse for them to continue like this.
