Been trying to pick this behavior up on camera for a while, they move so fast. Is this some sort of dominance behavior or courtship? I've had them for about a year before they started doing this. They only do it after feedings, and quite aggressively. After they've been fed and calmed down they stop.

Usually the larger ones initiate it. They do this sway and nudging/rubbing behavior. Every so often they dart against eachother. No injuries or nipping.

Just thought this was interesting, been seeing it for a while but can't find online what's going on.

    Mine do this. I wasn’t sure if it was dominance or courtship either. I posted it here a few years ago and didn’t really get a proper answer at the time
