Are you their breeder or when have you gotten the pups?

It's normal.

We bought them together

Very normal behavior… I would say that it's ok for them to stay together for now, but you may want to invest in separate crates in the future.

Play fighting is normal for all pups! I agree, once mine were out growing the crate they were in, I separated them and put them in their own crate-at first facing each other-so they could still see each other. When they were used to their separate crates, then I put them beside each other. They all sleep in crates at night. Every one has their own methods. Mine still wrestle and "fight" over toys- because, just like skin kids, they always want the same one-no matter if there are more the same,but when it starts sounding too serious, I stop it. No real fighting allowed in this dog family! I used to buy four of each toy, but learned that I might as well just buy one of each.

I have two pups 7 weeks apart, they share the same dad. They play fight constantly and even end up with little nicks on their faces but they are having a blast together not being mean. Mine are quite attached and we did have them together but have recently separated them into two different crates as one is completly house trained and the other sometimes still wants to go in the crate and I didn't think it was fair for the trained one.

Thank you all for all the information as these are our first bull dog pups
