Can you put two females together in the same tank or is it advised to seperate them?

Most would say that you shouldn't put two ball python together at any point in time due to several different reasons . . . feeding, husbandry, controlling any illnesses, etc.

I do know that many who keep a couple as pets house them together and report that they have no problems.

I wouldn't risk it IMHO.

How big is the enclosure? I had an adult male, and 2 juveniles (1 male & 1 female) together in a 75 gal tank and they did fine. I seperated them to feed them, but other than that no problems. Here is a picture of my adult male with a juvenile male.
