"Best Friends" - Contrasting Male Harleys

[RedCrestedLover]

I have a large Arboreal Vision Tank and because I have no room for these guys.....they've sort of grown up together.....
I knew from the beginning the dangers of housing males together, however this was a necessity for me and I have been extremely vigilant of them....
no harrassment going on, no marks, and good weight gain for both.....they are "best friends" -
 
I have however provided double the amount of hiding places I would have normally used and have several feeding stations throughout the tank....this has undoubtedly helped.

Anyway...I think the contrast in colors on these harleys is nice.
Hope you like.

I know of people who keep multiple males together with no consequences. I think he did everything right, I've heard it's almost a non issue without any females in the tank. Even with females, the rhac book says as long as they're in a big enough enclosure there's no problem. Says there's a good chance they'll lose their tails, but that's natural. Really sweet geckos, I think having them next to eachother brings out the best of both of them.

Really nice geckos and great head structure on them too...

When I purchased these males, seperately, they had there own cages. ?With time, I changed direction in projects and I had opportunities to purchase females that I simply could not pass up, then I was short of tanks. ?Had there been an issue....I would have gone out the same day (immediately) and purchased additional housing....even though I have no room. ?These guys have also been on sale for some time with no takers.

Everyone else: thanks for the kind words!
I shot these pics and they came out nicer than I thought.

*drool* That is all...

[monster]

lovely contrasts! males can be difficult to sell. wish i needed them... they do have nice heads.

[untytled]

Had they ever been introduced to females prior to being housed together?

Studly males.

No, never introduced to females.
Thank you renato...

?These guys have also been on sale for some time with no takers.

It's discouraging, but cresteds just don't sell like they used to.? I think your asking price is more than reasonable so just try to be patient.? ?

[HzRdS]

When I saw them for sale my first thought is which one do I want? So if I had the money for them I would take them off your hands in an instant but unfortunately money's a little tight right now...

we wanted the dark red for our female but someone else said they wanted it RIght before we did 

[ColleenM]

i want your male cream terribly but unfortunily not sure if I'll have the cage space.

They are both absoluetly amazing!

[RedCrestedLover]

thanks everyone...

(I'd rather not discuss any "selling issues" and take advantage of how this forum is set up.  I only brought up that bit of info to explain myself before.
I'm sure you understand)

Thanks for the compliments!!!!
