Thanks for the interesting comments. Just to finish my contribution to this debate, yesterday I was at a friend's house. Last year he had a snake escape, and only just recaptured it.
He put it into a large enclosure with plenty of hides, branches etc, and it straight away went to the (unrelated but same species and size) snake in the tank and has been in a huddle with him ever since.
These are all Fiji Boas Candoia bibroni bibroni.
So, back to the original questions, no I don't think it's weird for snakes to house together, certainly not with all snake species, but yet again I'd emphasis safety / health precautions need to be taken.
