In another forum, somebody posted pictures of ball pythons that had eaten other ball pythons. The one that stuck with me the most was the one that showed one ball python that ate another ball python that was bigger than it was!! Needless to say they both died. When the autopsy was performed, they laid both snakes next to one-another, and the one that ate the other one was like 2 inches bigger. Canniblism happens, even when they are snakes that were hatched together, and grew up together. When they lay next to each other, its actually a dominance establishment(except of course when they're breeding)One day they look cozy, the next day, one is eaten and possibly the other will be dead, so you should really get another enclosure.
I hope this helped.
I'm Amanda, by the way
