Hello. I just acquired a pair of cherryhead RF's. They are juvenile sized. About six to seven inches. I have an adult normal male redfoot. I put them in the same enclosure with him. He seems very curious to the other two. There has been a bit of ramming between the smaller male and bigger. The smaller generally winning. The older one is following both around the enclosure stretching out it's head and seemingly sniffing the other two. He has not bit either of them at all. I am just worried that he is going to get mean. Should I be concerned? Should I seperate them? Any suggestions?

My experience with adult male cherryheads is that I could NEVER put them together. My group (2.2) was kept in a large, planted yard with plenty of cover but whenever the two males were placed together, they would immediately engage in aggression and serious fighting. So they were always kept apart.
But my male Colombian redfoots would never, under any circumstances, engage in aggressive behavior.
