I would make definitely sure that you have a male and a female. That would be my first guess.

ya that would be the first step, but do things like this just go away or am I gonna have to separate them for good?

Don't take chances, separate them. Occasionally there are females that are scrappers and won't stand to be male-dominated. So even if you have a m/f pair you can't be assured she'll just bow, wave, and let him have his way.

Besides, keeping a male and a female together constantly severely shortens a female's lifespan because of all the breeding pressures.

I called the breeder I bought them from and I sexed them they are indeed both males but from what the breeder told me it should be no problem keeping them togather he says his will fight one day and be ine the next but they never hurt eachother.

Are you willing to bet the health of your bearded dragons on that..because thats what you will be doing if you leave them together.....its not fun having to clean up an injured beardy from a "male" fighting event if they decide to go.
