Since NoBigDeal didn't get slammed...

If I were to place two small (this year) balls together, would it be a problem? I have on male one female, but I don't think either of them will be old enough to mate next month. The reason I ask is because I am moving in a little less than a month and I would like to house them together until then. Hope I don't start an uproar of "How bout this or how bout that's"!! Thanks. -Joe
P.S. Don't bother saying DONT DO IT unless you have a plausable reason, plausable reasons are not "Because, He told me, I saw this thing etc..." Thanks again. -Joe

If the two animals are both completely healthy and you seperate them to eat I dont see a reason why they cant be caged together for a SHORT amount of time.

If they are both healthy and neither is going to decide to breed...then do what you have to. Just make sure they both have adequate and separate hides.

If neither one has been housed with another snake before (or in a long time) don't be surprised if you notice some stress induced behaviors... like cruising around the tank or even a stress induced hunger strike.

If it's only for roughly a month and they do exhibit some behaviors they should (hopefully) clear up when you are able to separate them again.
