Adding a new gecko

[JesseJinx]

I am new to the gecko world and I am thinking of greeting another. How would I go about introducing the two?

You can introduce them by letting them spend time together in a supervised and controlled environment. Just be careful about territorial behaviors. Make sure you have extra hides for them and extra water and food bowls so they don't feel aggressive about sharing.

Be sure to quarantine them from each other for at least a month.

Thanks @acpart

 

[JesseJinx]

Should they also both be about the same size? Or does that not matter?

 

[acpart]

I have found size to be not so much of an issue with adults. I think it's different with juvies.

Ok thanks again! Do you know what the likelihood of mating is if I had both sexes?

 

[Jetfire]

if you have a definite sexual pair,and have them set up even close to correctly,you might as well set up the incubator now...:G::G::G::G::G:

Hahaha well I don't want that to happen.
