yeah your right i did miss one from a previous post. To Wit:



" i know 2 snakes in an enclosure is "bad" but these two are almost inseparable. see my post on ball python aggression, no replies so far, only the one story about the guy who had 6 snakes in an enclosure and had one eaten. so right now i'm not too worried . also I have a 40 long coming in, so i can divide it into 2 "rooms if needed ".....



to clarify. at that time my temps were not quite right (a little too cool) and according to what i have read sometimes snakes will coil up together if they are cold.



inseparable? just plain fact they were always together, while basking, in a hide etc.



i have a new tank coming in RTFP! i can separate if necessary. or divide the tank into two with a sheet of opaque plexiglass.



according to further research most aggression happens when you have 2 males who have reached sexual maturity housed together, since i don't know the sex of my snakes, and sexual maturity is at least a year away i have some time.

any further thoughts?
