I get so worried!?

[Neill]

When ever a male is put into a cage someone stops eating!? For example put my super snow BOY in with my 2 big girls, one stops eating. Just put my blizzard male in with my blizzard female both stopped eating. Its only day 2 but i feed them every day. Should i not feed every day? Should i let them settle in with one another for a week? I just get so worried when one doesn't eat for a day!

You're asking why your lizards are choosing between a twinkie and Penthouse.
Think about it, it's a big distraction.

If you only keep them housed together for 24-48 hours, there won't be a problem. They'll either get down to business or they won't, and you won't have to fret about them not eating so long.

Just my two cents...not trying to be inappropriate, just giving an analogy.

Nice Janece, lol. Most people feed their leos every other day, as I do mine.

Honestly, I don't house geckos together at all. I put them together, view copulation within a few minutes, then separate. It's as easy as that, and I've never had big problems with them going off food. For what it's worth though, 1 day is NOTHING without food for these guys
