I've seen better success with fertility and bonding only with pairs that were put together their first or second winter depending on their size......
But I have not seen this with older snakes that were never housed with their mates.......
I was seeing fertility problems keeping them separate.......the first two years I tried the communal housing technique with young snakes....they produced well for me, then I got a large number of adult snakes and tried the same technique but it did not work like it did with young snakes that were raised together from sub adults to adults.....
This is just my experience....
I've seen where keeping them together helped and where it did not.....
Like I said, I will continue both ways depending on the criteria I mentioned above....... ----- John Lassiter
