Beardies have a nasty habit of seeing almost anything, especially quick moving objects, as food. Anything smaller than the beardie will either be eaten whole or, at the very least, severly crippled.
Some have managed to pair beardies female-to-female together successfully, but I think they have to be the same size. Males and females together cause two specific problems, the male will aggressively try to breed with the female, causing a population explosion, or the bigger of the two will try to dominate the other, causing fights, stress, and everything else unhealthy for the weaker beardie. Males paired together will most definitely try to dominate one another.
And finally, most other bigger herps like uros and such can not only stress out a smaller beardie, they can be just as territorial, resulting in fights and damage.
Beardies do just fine as solitary animals, so it's best to just keep them that way. ----- Dl
