Female Tegu aggression.

[Orion]

I have 2 females I introduced about 3 months ago. The larger of the 2 keeps biting the smaller in the lower back, she chases the other one down in the cage and attacks her. The larger one is 36 and the smaller girl is 35 inches, they are housed with a 40 inch male. This started a couple months ago. Previously they had been housed separately. I have had to separate their housing on 2 occasions. They seem to be getting along fine basking together for days at a time then it just seems that the big girl goes crazy and starts attacking the other one. They dont ever try to bite me and they even she seems to stop when she is out of the cage. I would like to have them all together but if its going to be an issue the I will keep them apart.

How old are they Sound like a female that has laid eggs although Im pretty sure they Havnt, it would be best to keep them seperated so that the smaller one dosnt get stressed out, does she go after the male

The lager one is a and a couple months and the smaller is almost 2. No eggs yet. No she never goes after the male he tries to hide when this fiasco goes on, since she chases the other one down like shes trying to kill her to eat her.
