Change in behavior, staying in the hide box more than normal, bite marks on the sides, not eating/getting thin. These are just a few.

Is pairing uros in one cage really a bad idea? I've seen so many pics in here of multiple-caged uros who seem fine. In fact a lot of the people who post in here seem to have no problem with their lizards cohabitating. It appears that the males are larger than the females, and it leads to to believe this has something to do with them getting alone in one tank.

One will obviously be the dominate animal-generally facing the submissive animal. The submissive animal will head away-as far away as possible. If that is a hide spot it may not come out and bask. It may show dark hash marks on the legs and sides. Nipping at the tail is alsso a sign of aggression. Normal behavior seeming to stop is the general beginning clue that something is up...
