Hi! Just a thought -- you are not keeping those 2 snakes together in one box, right? You only put them in there for size comparison? Because if they are kept together, one snake is going to dominate the other in however subtle or not so subtle ways, and that causes stress, and stress causes non-feeding. Also, they are burrowing snakes and need decent amount of substrate, and a hide eventhough they hide mostly underground.
