Bry:
Thank you for your input.  By putting 2 in each tank, at least that would still 
eliminate one tank.  I definitely don't want to cramp them.  I feed them all crickets 
in the tank occassionally, but most of the time I take each one out and feed them 
juvenile Orange Head Roaches in a large bowl outside of their tank.  It is kind of a 
bonding time for me with each of them.  After they eat, I hold them and talk to them.  
They seem to like it...
