dominance

Hi, I've recently in the last 2 months taken on a couple of female Hermanns tortoises. They weren't in the best shape when I rehomed them and were riddled with worms. This problem has since been sorted out and they really seem to be thriving, but now one has taken to mounting the other, first...

This here is Mork and Mindy. A male and a female Rankin's Dragon which I brought the other week. My questions come from a slight lack of knowledge and first experience in keeping any reptile. These two were sold to me together by the shop because the keeper said that they'd been together all...

I'v not seen these behaviours in before, only recently i'm a multi dragon owner, i used to only have the male Shrek. One reason why i will never let him meet them unless there is something between them, I thought he'd kill them, was just wondering if he was in that state of mind or was it...

I got two adult bearded dragons on Saturday, a male and female. We got them from the garden centre pet shop and originally we were only going to buy the female but the member of staff said they wanted to sell and keep them together as they had been together their whole lives. So they sold us...

I have 2 Vittikins Dragons m&f, they live in a viv exotic 4 ft so plenty of room. They live together fine with a little bit of dominance and neck biting from the male but nothing bad. The female is more than happy and is not restricted by the male. she happily goes about as she wants and they...

3 - 4 months ago i bought a baby basilisk all alone so for 3-4 months he is used of being alone. Yesterday i bought myself a 2nd basilisk but with this one you could already see the crest on his head growing because i really wanted a male he is also around the same age as the first one. I...

Hi, i have recently got some turtles 4 in total 2 are yellow bellied sliders (i think) and the other 2 are mud turtles from what i have researched online they are the closest i have found to what mine look like. The reason i dont know what species they are is because i rescued them from this...

We've had our beardie for nearly 3 years and got him when he was a baby. He's always let us know when he wants to come out for a run around by scratching and headbutting the glass but lately he seems to be getting more aggressive with this and has started bobbing and darkening his beard he calms...

I have 2 leopard geckos, both female, and they used to live together. Dill, the larger of the two, started dominanting lilly by biting her after living together for 8 months with no problems. Neither of them stopped eating and they were fine behaviour wise i just saw an increase in the bite...

Since making Kali and Dreamers viv suitable for them the girls peace treaty has ended :c Kali is far bigger than Dreamer, and although there is no fighting there are a fair few dominance issues. I think Kali would do better with a lady her own size to be honest. However the gecko her size is...

My video came 41st (pffft, yeah I know!) in the top 50 funny animal videos on Rube Tube the other week. You can still catch it on 4oD :) It was this one - of....my rats staring at each other. YouTube - Rat Staring Contest With Background Music

I bought a bearded dragon and I'm housing it with my current year old dragon. The dragon I bought was found abandoned in a park and taken in by someone with little knowledge about beardies. She's underweight, and was very inactive at first. She's moving around a lot more now that she's under...
