Hi there, I have 2 males which have been together for a few months, they get on really well. I want a female but I am not sure about keeping a female with 2 males, Any advice??

Unless one or both are neutered it wont work. Both will try breeding with her causing fights and dominance problems.

So does that mean keeping two neutered males and one entire female would be okay then?

Females are unspayed as the op on a female is more invasive so if you already have 2 males yes I would advise to get them neutered and slowly introduce (after a quarentine period) a female by pouch/toy swapping, then cage swapping and then if poss a cage in a cage then supervised playtime.  Make sure she is approx the same size or at least 2/3rds so she can stick up for herself if needed and hopefully if you take it slow enough all will work out.
