"The better question is why weren't they separate from the start? Or at least after one or both of them became sick?

Unless you acquired sick animals, which I don't know why anyone would, if you had not kept them together you likely would not have had two sick animals.

People need to think about these things before they get new animals.

THAT, didn't need to be said.

Look, we all make mistakes, at one point or another, and the fact is, there are countless legitimate reasons for two snakes to be housed together and both becoming sick. For all you know he may have just recently rescued them and they were housed together when he got them and both were already sick.

You may have good intentions but you ain't his daddy, so quit actin' like it.

BTW, there's no possible way to plan ahead for every conceivable situation. And even if you wre to be "Mr. Perfect Herpetologist," I guaran-dang-tee you that there's at least one area of your life that you're a slacker in.

Next time, stick with just answering the person's question and don't try to belittle them or make them feel any guiltier than they already do.

I hate to be so hard on you but it's been a long, hard day and I'm sick & tired of seeing posts like yours.

Other than that, have a great day!
