Yes! They will fight because they will protect their territory; i even put my 2 males in a playpen without any other male scent (just fresh air) and they fought now 1 of them has a badly swollen eye and a scab and the other has no fur on one side of him and boogers encrusted on his nose, I tried to take them off very carefully and it hurts him so they grew into his skin!!! So i have to keep them apart from 1 another.
