I keep my two females in one cage, but my males all have their own seperate cages.

i have heard of this being done to stimulate male combat to induce breeding. if not breeding, i would not suggest housing the snakes like that.

just an idea but oh well, just gives me an excuse to get another female boa to partner up with me 2nd male.

well if your trying to breed then it is good, as it may give you better chances of a fertile clutch. if you are just housing them like this and not wanting to breed them then i would have three seperate cages, one for each animal.
