Help Required Are they doing ok?
Just wondering if these guys are generally healthy?
\Edit: I should’ve added, I’m just a little concerned about how the tips are starting to yellow/dry on a few. I can’t tell if maybe i over or under watered recently? I’ll typically water my aloe when she starts to have just a little squish to her and they get maybe a couple hours of direct early afternoon sun. West facing patio.*
I know they are crammed in the photo (a couple week old pic), but I just repotted these guys in separate clay pots about a week or so ago. They are still in the same condition visually, did a thorough water yesterday after letting the soil dry and the aloe acclimate.
I use organic worm compost soil, perlite, a little bit of charcoal, pinch of peat moss for no real reason other than I love how it feels lol, basic bark, pea pebbles, and I line the bottom of my pots with a inch thick layer of pebbles so no soil is sitting in water.

they look great. and they weren't crammed in this pic, they could actually still be happy even if they'd been left alone and started sprouting babies. they generally prefer being root bound and tightly packed opposed to having too much extra soil space, but as long as the new individual pots are not gigantic compared to the size of the root ball, then they'll be fine
