Leopard Geckos are solitary reptiles. Only bonding with the opposite sex during breeding season. Females CAN be housed together so long as they are all roughly the same size and weight. Any animal being introduced to one another must have been through the quarantine period.

"Quarantine is defined as the isolation period a new or sick Leopard gecko should go through before it is introduced to other geckos. It is meant to prevent the transmission of clinical and sub-clinical diseases from one Leopard gecko to another. If a gecko is still healthy after the Leopard gecko quarantine period it will exclude the probability of having a disease and it can be safely transferred to a vivarium with other animals."

After Quarantine, a leopard gecko may be introduced to another.

Some info that will provide useful

Male leopard geckos can not be housed together. Males will fight one another to prove dominance. Tails will be nipped and possibly fall off. The smaller males being bullied could stress, this will promote starvation and death.

Females can be housed with a single male for extended periods. Males co-existing with females will breed all 12months of the year. Being over bred will decrease their lifespan and also drain the female of calcium.
