Giving my beardie a buddy?

[Texsdad]

I had a beardie that I adopted from a buddy a few years back, Tex lived to be about 10-12 years and then passed unexpectedly. I just recently mustered the guts to get another one. Tex Jr. Is just a little guy and from what I can tell is in fact a male (candled the tail using a flashlight). I have never owned more than one but am aware that housing 2 males could potentially be hazardous. My question is if I housed a juvenile male and female would I be at risk of premature mating? Also, if I were to monitor them closely, could I house 2 docile males together?

Hi. You never want to house 2 beardies together. Look up cohabitation of beardies on Google and there are all kinds of images of cage mates bitting off limbs and tails. I have 3 and they can't even be in the same room or they freak out when they see each other. All of them have their own enclosure in a different room.
