I have 2 snakes that have been in the same cage for about 2 years. I always seperate them to feed but when i was putting the one snake back in the the cage the other attacked it. Not just a bite but wraped it up and started to squeze. Do you think its just because they were just finished feeding or something i should be careful of? I seperated them tonight but i dont have the cage space to keep them apart permanatly at the moment. I had to put 2 breeder size males together and will have to seperate them because i dont want to cause the undue stress. I cleaned the wound and put neosporan on it. I will probably wait a few days until the wound heals but do you think its ok to put them back together? thank you in advance for your input
