Would they eat each other because the yellows are babies and the fire bellied are big babies lol ( If you see what i mean ).

Get Yellow bellied......if you get bored of yellew then just supplement with Canthaxanthin and they should turn to fire belleid...best of both worlds and a great experiment to boot

What he said! Yellow bellies are interesting, and worth keeping, but best on their own, unless they are too big to fit into the Oriental's mouths. Orientals are MEGA-adaptable, and generally easier to keep. Up to you.
