can two adult bullsnakes live in the same cage? I bought a adult bullsnake, it's doing fine. I had it in it's own cage for a couple months but I would like to keep them both in the same cage if it's not going top stress them out. one is larger than the other but not alot larger. I do't breed them their just pets.

Why do you want them together? I can only tell you some reasons not to. Having two snakes in the same enclosure is definitely going to increase the stress level.But they might get used to it. It's also going to make feeding and cleaning much more difficult. You simply can't feed them both in there. But if you have a legitimate reason for wanting to, try it and see what happens. It could work.

space is getting to be a premium. I have 23 snakes now and cage is defenately big enough for both of them. I do'nt feed them in the same cage so the reason is one cage is large and pretty sharp looking the others genaric, these are the first bullsnakes I 've had and I just was'nt sure.

They will be fine together. Obviously just feed them seperate. I've kept bulls together for 10 years without a single problem. There is always the freak chance that one might eat the other. I've seen pics on this forum of gophers eating other gophers. I'd say if you have to keep them seperate due to space than you "should" be fine. If you can keep them seperate I would do that.
