male combat is very possible. most people on here will suggest housing all snakes by themselves as they are solitary animals and keeping them together can stress them out. If you go with a female house mate you need to make sure she a good weight 1500 grams or more (suggested) in case they breed which would most likely happen. Best rule of thumb is one snake per cage.
