Your black rat will get darker, and probably lose the majority of its pattern, if not all of it (it varies, really, from snake to snake). Also, you might want to consider housing them separately for a number of reasons. Suffice it to say, it's better that way, both for the snakes (they're huddled together not because they like each other, but rather because they both want to be in the spot in the cage that has the best conditions insofar as heat, humidity, etc, and they've found it right on top of each other), and it'll make it easier for you to trouble shoot should something happen to one or the other. Also, once the black rat gets bigger, it might just eat the other snake. Good luck.
