I think it's better to -not- keep your animals in the same cage. Snakes are solitary animals, and on top of that they are quite territorial. They should have their own enclosures that they do not have to share. It's also harder to monitor feeding, defecation, shed cycles etc. If one gets sick then the other will get sick. Some people do not encounter problems when housing snakes together, but I've also heard of snakes being fine together for awhile and then suddenly trying to kill each other when they headed for the water dish at the same time.
Perhaps you should speak to your breeder about it too and get a more professional opinion than what I can provide.
