If they're housed together, that's likely at least most of your problem. Dragons are solitary animals that do best when housed alone. When they're housed together one almost always grows faster and stronger than the other. The smaller of the 2 usually ends up either seriously injured or dead.

It's been done before, however.. the odds of something going terribly wrong are far better than things going well for these two dragons.
Thus we don't promote housing multiple dragons together..
