can i house a ball python and colombian red-tail together?

This question has been asked many times. General consensus - shouldn't really keep 2 ball pythons together let alone mix species. You'll find some of the reasons in previous posts.

Ball Pythons are from Ghana & Togo in Africa.

Colombian Red-tail boas are from Columbia in South America.

2 Very different places in the world with 2 very different environments.

Also, though I'm not a boa person, I'm pretty sure your boa will get much bigger then your ball.

They really need to be kept seperately. They will grow to be different sizes. The larger red tail will need more space. They also come from different environments, like the last post said. Becareful also, boids can transfer IBD and RI to each other.
