Housing a 2nd Leo

[clink51]

Hey everyone, its been a long time since my last post. All has been well with my Leo, Chomp and i have been thinking about giving him a friend.
Sooo a little bit on specs of the tank:
-29 gallon glass tank
-Reptile Carpet
-Hot side=89-95
-Cool side=80-85
-2 hides (one on cool one on hot) 1 moist hide
-1 water dish
-Under tank heater + heat lamp in the winters
-he gets 6-8 meal worms once a day or every other day occasionally crickets

Here are my questions:
--Hes a "Normi"...should i get another Normi or can i get a different kind?
--I know one male to two females, but what about size differences
--Will he see the new Leo as a threat or will he let her, because it will be a female, right in??

All thoughts, views, and input is thankful...thank you guys
Gio

My question is are you planning to breed them?

Male dont need a friend, they are loner and will live alone. Male will fight with males to death if he see one.

If you want two leopard gecko house together, Females can.
Males dont.

Otherwise If you want another leopard gecko so house seperately.

Like Grimmy said, if you house a male and a female together be ready for babies. They WILL breed.... its not IF, but WHEN you will get eggs. Also, even with 2 females to 1 male, the male will stress the females out by wanting to breed CONSTANTLY. House them separately and that way you can concentrate on getting the morph you want. BTW,morph doesnt matter when housing males and females together. The males are horn dogs and are NOT prejudice at all.

You could house 3 geckos in that tank. Do you want to breed?

Yes you can put in other morphs if thats what you ment but not species.
