It can happen, it probably won't if you keep them fed and they are of equal size. I'd go with a 20 with plenty of hides on each side. That way, they can separate if they want to. I would say yes, but if you have fear about your ability to supply a proper heat gradient and plenty of warm and moist hides, I wouldn't do it. Like I said before, keep 1 and raise it successfully, then get more. Once you feel like you know them, then you can try advanced keeping. But I am sort of an experimenter of sorts, I am not afraid of losing a king to another. it is best, I think if you do it young, and check them. But again, if you lose a snake then it would be on your head. It's your money, go with what you think and feel is right. But I thought you said you weren't going to anyway because you weren't going to breed them, and they are from two different localities. This would get you pyros, but ruin your locality snakes, worth more money for locale specific.

You will probably find that they will share space most of the time but they would need to have the option to separate if they want to, can't stress this point enough.
