I would definately keep them solo... There are too many things that can go wrong when animals are housed together! If one animal develops a problem, they will both have it. Feeding together is very bad because fights will break out no matter what. If you have two males....that's a problem. Stress is also a factor when housing together so it's just best to keep them seperate. Good luck!

what you might want to consider is a way to divide the cage into 2 equal sized cages, that is what I did with mine and it works great, what is nice is when it is breeding season I just pull the divider and let them go at it.
