frilled lizards

Question
if i get a Really large terrarium could i possibly house two male frilled lizards because if it's just two males and no females put into the equation the two males would not have anything to fight about right? or are they just to territorial? i would like to have to males because i hear females are harder to handle and i don't want a male and female because i don't want a dozen of them.

Answer
Hey Carl, thank for the great question.  However, we as Humans tend to forget that even in the wild the males and females of most other species only come together out of necessity to breed and for no other reason.  So long story short I wouldn't risk it.  As far getting a dozen of them you'd have to incubate the eggs and I have never heard of Females being harder to handle.  Anyway, I hope that helps.
