I would never advise keeping 2 males together as they will fight, esp if there is only one female

If you are waiting for someone to say yes, I highly doubt anyone will.
They will most likely fight so just leave them seperate.

As everyone keeps saying, NO you can not house 2 males together.

However if that is what you want to do, then be prepared for vet bills and even losing one or both males as they will fight to the death.

If you want to add another beardie to the pair, get another female

Cool

i agree mostly but i disagree with luke123;
the situation isnt 'NEVER' as you put it, there is a place near us called silent world (look it up if you dont believe me) and they keep two beardie males together and not ONCE have they fought, NOT ONCE, and i know this because my brother works there, its not a shop, they dont really sell they just let people see....its a great place and to be honest the two males are constantly snugling up together and so fourth so i disagree that it 'NEVER' works because sometimes it does........
