Personally I think that the biggest thing is personality. I know that fatties and leos are different, but I am going to use leos as an example in this situation. Everyone says that you can't house male leos together, because they will fight. Well I have a friend that has 3 of them housed together, and they get along with no problems at all. My biggest concern keeping your geckos together would be your male over breeding your female. Yes, when you put them together, chances are they will begin breeding that day. Also, most likely, they will continue breeding throughout the year, which would in turn deplete your female of calcium, and exhaust her, eventually leading to her death. While there is no sure-fire proof that this will happen, it is a possibility, which if you take the risk and keep them together, you should look out for. Good luck in your endeavor.
