Other people on this forum will know far better than me when it comes to housing Boids together, and I think it's probably better not to, but thousands of snakes are kept that way without issue.

I kept two pairs of Elaphe - (Corns and Grey rats in this case) together in one large viv for many years and they all got on like a house on fire and bred merrily. Boids are a bit different, and you do hear these horror stories of canabalism or smaller snakes killed during courting, but in all likelihood you wouldn't have a prob.

But if these boas each get to 6 foot, you'll end up needing a 72" viv to comfortably house them both, just so they can get away from each other.
