i don't normally recommend housing multiple snakes together, although i know many people that do without problem, but i would say no less than a 30 gallon breeder tank, 36" x18"x12" i believe. but it also depends on the size of them, i have seen some pretty monstrous female ball pythons. Definately use your best judgement, give them multiple hides and feed seperately.
