Hi, I am planning on buying a pair of Red Tailed boas, and was wondering if they can be housed together all the way from babies to breeding them?
Thanks for the input,
Scott

That would be a bad idea for a number of reasons. Get them their own separate enclosures.

I have kept boas from birth into adulthood together with no problems. I'm not saying this is the best way, but it can (and has) been done successfully. If it is possible, definitely keep them separate. It makes feeding and cleaning alot easier and safer. Or build (or buy) a cage that has an internal removable divider that you can use when feeding and/or cleaning. There are many ways to keep these animals but first and foremost do what is right to keep them happy and healthy.
