how many (diff types) geckos in 1 cage

Can you house multiple geckos in one cage? If so do they have a tendency to fight and can you house more than one kind of species in one cage?

All I do know is my brother had 2 leaopard fat tails and one was either always hungry or purposely eat all the food so the other one couldnt and it would eat so much i think it threw its food up once or twice.

You will almost always run into some form of dominance when dealing with multiple species. It's also possible that one species may be carrying a disease that they have built up an immunity to, but can be fatal to the other species. It's (basically) never a good idea.

Dominance will occur even with same-species groups when one animal becomes larger than the other, which (I'm assuming) is the case that you've described. This is why most geckos are kept individually until they are larger and why large groups of babies almost never do as well as individually-kept animals.
