exactly Kerby,....I stated the very same thing below in a post.

Countless snakes(and of course other animals) are killed, and/or consumed by their own kind ALL THE TIME, and it never puts a tiny dent in the overall survival of these animals whatsoever as a whole. It is a very natural occurrence that has happened constantly over the countless millenium of time.

I remember reading here were "someone" said that if they ate each other, there wouldn't be any...HAHAA!!

hmmmmm??, then why are there are still plenty of bears, lions, fish, and every other type of animal that is also very known to eat their own kind on occasion??......weird, huh?..

Flipping some boards and concluding this "NEVER" happens is only because they didn't SEE it happen under that board when they were on their hands and knees that particular day, or WEEK, not that it never did, or could never happen. Just like Jorge mentioned, if three were found under a board, who is to say there wasn't ever four under it at one time?

This whole silly argument is because they want to do this and save time and space, not because it is "best". Of course if they are together all the time you might get more eggs from ovulation not being missed,...SO FREAKIN WHAT???, that's because it is more about the "eggs" than the snakes anyway.

What "choice" do the snakes have anyway, they either have to

A) survive, or....

B) perish

This certainly can't be disputed logically, but I guarantee someone here will try.....they always do..LOL!
