What's the best way to make a hide for my geckos? I have 3 very juveniles in a tank together. Also, When do you think i'll have to get a larger cage? It's 20 Gal now which seems to fit them really well, and I may have to separate one or two of them if there is more than one male, so i may have to keep this cage and get another around the same size. When do 2 males begin to get hostile with one another, because these 3 have been living together for 2 or 3 weeks without a problem, but they are very young too.

they won't start becoming hostile until sexually mature. Also if they are all females or 1 male 2 females (1.2) they can live in that cage their whole life assuming it is a 20 gallon long. There are two ways to make good hides.
the first way is terra cotta flower pot bases (4 or 6 inch)
get the terra cotta flower pot bases and with a hammer break a small opening in the side between 1 and 2 inchs. The terra cotta flower pot bases will hold heat good.
the 2nd way is a gladware container (4 or 6 inch again)
cut a hole in the top or side of the container and you have a hide.
