I've heard the same, however, I tried adding a male to a colony of 4 females just to see what would happen. Nothing happened, he joined the females but they avoided him for a day or two and then all was well. So then I added a female to a male and 2 female colony expecting a fight, but nothing happened and she cuddled up with the others. You can try it but be prepared to break up a fight.

I'm learning more as I go along. I had heard that since they come from a hot climate they like higher temperatures. When I put mine out in the screened lanai when the temps hit 90 they seem lethargic and when they are brought back in to the 79 degree house they perk up. The humidity may play a part in their comfort too.
