Bullsnake Roommates

Has anyone had any issues housing 2 juveniles of the same sex to the same cage when room is limited? Only for a couple months until a new rack is built.

Just wondering if anyone has done it and would strongly recommend against it or if it's not an issue at all.

Thanks!

Fine so long as food is not in the mix. In best instance you wouldn't reintroduce them even with strong scent of food on their bodies from recent constriction or food contact.

Most of my juvies are kept together in small groups of 2 or 3 individuals, only to be separated at feeding time. Adult and subadult males are housed individually. However, most of my (sub)adult females are kept in pairs. This method has always worked perfectly fine for me.
