Housing multiple leos

I feel pretty dumb asking this but do you all normally house multiple females together year round?

I ask this because I've kinda picked up on it reading different threads but i'm not positive.

Right now I have everyone in seperate enclosures so I keep track if a certain leos isn't eating, has runny stool, or which one is laying the eggs!!! Those are the reasons that I keep them in seperate containers. Am I just to paranoid or should I save some space and house the females together?

Just wondering and Thanks in advance.

It really depends on what you want. Some on here house their leos individually for the reasons you just mentioned. Others, myself included, house them in groups.

I think that my geckos enjoy interacting with one another on a certain level and I love watching all their little interactions. I like to think that they also keep one another entertained / mentally stimulated. I can't help but think how boring life would be if all they had were their two hides, four walls, and food bowls to keep them entertained. On the flipside, I usually don't know who laid what egg, some have to be removed due to bullying, if one were to get sick it would surely spred to its cagemates, and there is always the risk of things like dropped tails.

Both methods have their pros and cons which you'll have to weigh against each other and see on which side the scale tips for you.

I have always housed my Leos in groups and with the exception of maybe 2 incidents of bullying in over a period of 5 plus years I have always been blessed with happy and healthy Leos.
I think that housing them together is fine as long a you keep on top of things with daily observations (I do mine at feeding/cleaning time) on a daily basis.
I realize that I probably have more time than a lot of people because I do not work outside the house and I look forward to my nightltime visits with my Leos- I really do get to truly enjoy them this way.
I also agree that my Leos seem to enjoy the interaction of being in groups and I think it would be rather boring to live your entire life alone but hey that is just my opinion and I am sure that I am guilty of anthropomorphizing-LOL!!

I honestly think it really depends on the individual. Some of mine are housed together, and some of my females are not. I have a pair of females that have been together for nearly three years now, and have never had a spat. They really do seem to enjoy each other, and I wouldn't dream of seperating them now. I also have a pair that is going to be seperated due to a bullying issue. Leos all have their own personalities, some seem to be more social than others. Experiment with a clean and healthy population, and see who takes to who. It's very fun when your fav leos become good friends! :scatter:
I think as long as you are keeping an eye on them, and size is equivalent, go for it!
