Keeping them separate for health reasons, better monitoring of each snake and to reduce stress is a good idea.
Keeping them separate to avoid cannibalism is largely based on maybe a few (very few) incidents out of hundreds of opportunities of these snakes having access to one another in captivity where they didn't eat one another.
Do a poll here and ask how many people have cohabitated milksnakes and how many of those same people have had one snake eat another. I'm curious myself. I bet the numbers of eaters is very low vs the number that didn't. I would bet less than 1%.
Here's my input: 0 out of 20
