Is there a 7-Way Adapter that Splits into Two 7-Ways or Should a Junction Box be Used
Question:
does etrailer make a 7 wire 12 volt female plug plugs into the tow vehicle that splits to 2 male 7 wire 12 volt plugs, so that I can plug 2 trailers into or do I have to put a junction box in to split the wiring services? I see they have a 7 to 6 round and 5 square and a 7 round to 6 round and 4 square, but, no 7 to 7 round X 2 plugs?

There isn't an adapter that does what you are looking for. I think the junction box idea is the best solution because junction boxes do make things nice and neat and make it easier to troubleshoot. One thing to keep in mind though is to be careful about how much power you are pulling through a set up like that. Most vehicle side wiring and wiring systems are not rated all that high so overloading them is a real possibility.
Our most popular junction box is # 38656 but I have also included a link to the other options we carry.
