they don`t need or like company at all.Many problems are caused when you have two or more males together and amou\rous males harrassing females constantly.In fact females often withold their eggs if they do not have a territory of their own.In the wild they chance upon each other,if male/female they will mate and depart,if male/male they will fight and the dominant male will drive off the inferior one.Mating is more akin to what we know as rape so work it out for yourselves?This needing company thing is a human emotion put onto the animals by us and not them.
