Lately my cherry head Bruce has been very interested in Harriet. I got them at the same time about 2 1/2 years ago and separated them about a year ago as I witnessed Bruce bite Harriets leg and ram her when she was walking in front of him on a separate occasion. They are only together for short periods with close supervision and will never be together again. I have a well known exotic vet in my area and he believes they are both males. So my question is, and I know there is no certainty, but from experienced tortoise owners, does this appear to be dominant behavior in the video? He does it all the time but has not attempted to bite her again. He is so curious of her and I like to think he is being friendly. 🙃 He also follows her which I know can be a sign of bullying. Im just curious and want to continue learning about them and their behaviors. Regardless if it is bullying or not, like I said, they will never be in the same habitat. I'm not willing to take that chance. Thanks!!
