I have heard that Mangroves can be canabilistic. What is anyones personal experience with this. I currently have large male mangrove and am thinking of picking up three more this weekend at a show and was thinking about housing them all in a large display enclosure. The enclosure is 5' x 3' x 3' and is very natural looking with a waterfall, tons of perching places and hides. What is everyones opinions on the possibility of putting them all together in one enclosure. I haven't totally decided but I am either going to get three females to go with teh male I have (a melanota) or one female melanota and a pair of salawasi (gemmicincta). In your opinions would I be able to house the seperate subspecies in the same enclosure. Would they somewhat stay to their own kind or is their a high probablilty of them crossbreeding amongst the two subspecies? Before anyone flames me about housing snakes together this is the only time I have even thought about it since the enclosure is plenty big enough and i think it would be much more interesting two have multiple specimens inside the one cage. Letme know what you all think about this possibility. Thakn you in advance for your time and responses, Todd
