Young Beardy Behaviour question

[lockyman]

I have 3 x Inland Beardy hatchlings approx 8wks old. The larger of the 3 is showing signs of mating with the next smaller one by trying to grab her on back of neck and get on her? back. This one runs off and bows her head and does the arm waving routine. Could this mean they are male and female and do they try to mate at this early stage in life.
Thanks in advance

sounds like the bigger dragon is trying to show its dominance, not so much that they might be male and female.

Thanks Frankii, I didn't think they would be thinking about mating at this age!
