help! Hatching bullying?

[Prysionero]

I recently got 2 babies...1 Murphy Patternless and what looks to be a Tremper albino. The patternless is abit larger then the albino and last night i was just watching them with my infared light and saw the lil albino peekin into the mini-mealworm dish(havent seen her eat yet,patternless i did) and movin inside dish when the patternless tried to snap at his tail or near back(maybe he thought her tail was a mealy?) and albino ran away. I dont know if it had to do that they were crossing directions with each other and couldnt get past each other or what. I've never seen hatching try hurt each other.

Any help please?

Try seperating them...

I generally keep clutchmates together until about 15 grams. If they show ANY aggression towards each other I seperate them. I'm 42-0 for hatchling tail losses!

if one is larger than this can be very common.. I agree wit Michael.. separate them and they should be fine..

Separate definately. I used to keep my clutchmates together until about 10/15g like Michael, but soon as the have thier first shed I separate now so I can keep an eye on who's eating etc. That's usually within days of hatching. I've had no tail loss yet thank goodness.
