one of them is really bold and will eat in front of me, but the other one is very very scarred of me and i haven't see her eat once. so i don't know what i should do, should i seperate them and if i do that what should i put them in?

My first instinct would be to seperate them, maybe permanently. The bold one might be stressing out the shy one. If that's not an option, feed the bold one seperately to give the shy one a chance. My timor waits at least half an hour to venture out for food after I leave. He gets rodents, though, so I'm always sure if he gets them or not. With bugs it's tougher to tell.
(he wouldn't eat bugs, I tried. weirdo lizard.)

the minute i put food in the cage the bold one pokes his head out and goes crazy eating everthing that moves. so if i seperate the bold one for feeding one what do i put him in?i can put my hand in the cage and rub the bold ones back, is that normal aren't they susposed to run away?

Wow, That funny I also have two small Sav. monitors,and i have the same problem. Onw is nice and friendly and eats all the time in front of me, while the other is nasty as hell and does not like to bee pick up or look at. I sometimes feed them in seperater boxes because when the nice one is running after cix.he get in the way of te nasty one and they began to fight or lock jaws. this only happen when they are feeding in front on me I hope. I am pretty sure the nasty one eats when i am not around. Because his is still fatter then the other one.
