You can house Dumerils boas of similar size together. The size difference between your two Dumerils boas is borderline. Your safest choice is to house them individually for now, but you can try keeping them together as long as you watch things closely. If you decide to keep them together, there are a few things you need to keep in mind. You need multiple hides so they each have a place to go. Also, you have to separate them when you feed them. I keep my Dumerils together and never had any problems. The male was 3 years older and a little territorial when the female would try and crawl in his hide with him, but they quickly got used to each other. I hope this helps out. Also, about your signature. It works like this:

1.2.3 Dumerils

1 Male.2 Females.3 Unknown Sex

You would put:

1.1 Dumerils
