When do males usually start becoming aggressive to other males?

I have 2 babies (around 2mos old, lil less) that are not sexed. just wonderring if they turn out to be males, when they need to be seperated.

Thanks.

I would say, as soon as you can start telling sexes apart. If aggression starts before then, seperate them right away.

i once had 2 males, and they had to be separated by 4 months of age.

I've had 2 males together up to 5 months old... I wouldn't leave it much longer than that. You should definitely separate them at the first signs of aggression.

Yup, as soon as they show signs of aggression. Of course you could play it safe and seperate them before any potential problems arise.:D

As soon as aggression kicks in they should be seperated and if one gets larger than the other they should be seperated.
