Should I Keep Two Male Madagascar Cockroaches in the Same Enclosure?

[haints]

The local store only has males. They claim there is no issue keeping two males together, but I have read that they will fight and one may injure the other.

What are your thoughts on this?

I don't see why not, as long as you give them enough space and keep them fed all will be good.

Or feed one to a T and the other one will be safe!

Years ago I kept several male hissers as pets, and they all did just fine when housed together. Sure they would fight but they never really did any damage to each other. Plus without any females they really don't nave too much to fight over.

I keep a small group of males and females as pets. When the enclosure was too small (large KK) the males fought regularly, but after I upgraded them to a larger tank (5 gal) with more places to climb, the fighting has pretty much stopped. They hiss now and again, but that's about it.
