Unhappy Winter White brothers fighting

Hi, I’m new here and to hamster ownership. I bought two winter white brothers from a breeder and had them in the same cage. A couple weeks ago we saw one with blood and scratches on its stomach so we separated them. I’ve now learned that the cage I had them in was too small and we didn’t have two of everything. We also had areas where they could trap each other. Very rookie mistakes!!

So, my question now is... if I get a bigger cage and set it up properly, can I reintroduce them? We have them in two separate cages now, but we have kept them next to each other so they can see each other. The injured hamster is doing fine, but the dominant one now burrows a lot and has gained weight. I either need to get them both new cages or get one really big cage and reintroduce them. I’m need advice!

Sorry for the long post, but trying to explain everything to get the best advice!

Thank you,
Nick
