Baby Beardie Questions

[dassios1]

Was looking into getting a baby beardie and was wondering if its safe to put it in the same enclosure as my 2yr old beardie?
Also i have sand for the substrate so should i cover that up with newspaper and if so for how long?
Cheers

Your 2yr old will eat it mate

You will need another enclosure. Your older beardie will kill it.

^^^ beat me to it

Oh ok, cheers for that
For how long around about should they be seperated?

 

[Reptar859]

If you have 2 males they should be left apart. If you end up with one of each when the baby is around the same size as your adult it should be fine

My 2yr olds a female, cheers for the help

It would be better to try and find another one about the same age as the one you already have

keep seperate indefinately unless you are mating them - being the size difference l wouldn't mate. as mentioned above, your big beardie will either eat of hurt the small one..
