Hello
I have 2 sulcatas which I brought from the same pet shop in different time.
The 1st one called Noshi-Noshi and the other called Moja.
Noshi-Noshi has been with me for a month before I decided to buy Moja.
Their size is quite same; Noshi-Noshi is having 5,2 cm length from its plastron and Moja is having 5,1 cm length from its plastron.
From the 1st day of Moja's arrival, Noshi-Noshi seems don't like Moja that much.
He headbutted Moja and tried to bite Moja's head so that I have to separate them.
Enclosed their enclosure:
I personally believe that the size of the enclosure are enough for two of them.
I even put 2 different food dish so that they won't fight for food.
Several days later, I found that they are now living in peace until this morning I saw Noshi-Noshi was biting Moja's face when Moja was sleeping.
Could anyone please advise me why this is happening?
I know that tortoise is a solitary animal but I often see many people keeps more than 1 baby sulcata in their enclosure.
Is it possible that both Noshi-Noshi and Moja is a male tortoise?
Should I put them in a separate enclosure? Can they kill each other even they are a baby?
Thanks
