I didn't put this in the food section cause it's not about diet. I have two torts that live together. I never seem them fight it anything they always follow each other and stuff it's cute, but I do watch for bullying.

Anyway when it's feeding time is the only time. They both push each other out of the way for this one leaf or piece of food.....should I feed them separately??

In my opinion, yes. And if they were my animals, I would put two feeding tiles down at opposite ends of the habitat, with some sort of sight barrier in between so they are out of each others' sight.

When tortoises follow each other around like that it IS aggression. You have a problem and these two need to be separated and not just at meal time.
