Hi, Im thinking about buying 1 or 2 albino leopard geckos from the petstore near me and im wondering whether I could house them with my other 2, a 2 yr adult female and a 1 yr female. These would probably be about 3 months younger then the 1 yr old. I also have another question. Im building a few custom cages for my reptiles and there gonna be 4ft long some with dividers some with not, there gonna be 4' (Length) x2' (width) x6 inches (height). How many could I keep in this? It is gonna be fairly simple with not alot of cage decorations. I may buy more if I can keep them together.

The answer is that you probably could, but only AFTER the new animal have been quarantined for about 4 months. You don't want to risk your girls! Animals from a pet store are a risk, they could have been exposed to any variety of diseases, and may carry parasites. You'll want a good vet check, and a properly cautious quarantine for them before you put them near animals in your current collection.
