You can keep 5 in a 41 qt bin so long as they aren't too aggressive toward each other.

As for how do we know which eggs came from who it doesn't matter as all the females are the same. All trempers, all SHCT, or all mack snows. They get breed to the same males every year for the past 3 years. We keep our hets, first year breeders, project, and prove outs separate.

What size do you recommend? I swapped out the 20L that our guy was in to house a 3.0 group of garters. The 10 gallon we moved him to just doesn't seem big enough! Maybe I need to give him a more normal hide and take the big log climby-thing out. He doesn't really climb much...
Also, my lps was out of hinged screen lids, so we got a hinged glass versi-lid. Not really digging it! The hinge allows the (12 yo) owner easier access to the cage without having to remove the light fixture first.

Mine each have a 20 long.
My screen tops are just full tops, no hinges, and covered with a sheet of plexiglass. They also have RHP's attached to them (in addition to uth's).
I may not really be the one to ask if you are looking for economical or space saving keeping/housing. My guys are way spoiled and I've gone a bit too far...

a 10 gallon is fine for 1 leo. The bins we keep our single geckos in is smaller then a 10 gallon and they are just fine.

I keep 3 girls and 1 male in a 32 qt. Keep lots of hides and they will be fine. Good luck
