2 Beardies 1 sheds 1 doesnt

hiya guys

got 2 beardies, in same viv atm but will get a 2nd one to split them soon.

i know one is bigger than the other but does this make a difference to the shedding?? the bigger one shreds alot more than the smaller one!! is this normal??

I'm guessing this is a stress factor.  The one not shedding is stressed  by it's cage mate. 
Can you separate these two ?  Is the enclosure large enough to provide both with their own basking and uvb ?  If so, then just place a divider in that enclosure, separating these two.. and I'll bet you'll quickly see improvements.
Hope this helps.

we have a 4ft tank that their both in atm i have a spare 3ft tank but didnt kno then if the one left in the 4ft tank would hae too much space!!?? i dont know much about beardies hence comin on here, you can google to your hearts content but id rather ask people who have had them and raised them rather than rely on a book or the internet!! would it be best to seperate then??

You can make that 40 smaller just by putting in a simple cardboard partition..
I'd personally move one of them, giving both their own space...
Hope this helps.
