Re: my two new boys

They are lovely. However, the one pictured with the exo terra hide looks pretty small for a two year old, although it might just be the picture. It's hard to tell on the other one, or if they are the same size.


If they are both boys and you continue to keep them together at two years old, you are asking for trouble. Even people who do co-habitate either keep pairs or female stogether, but not usually males.

I can never see any reason to co-habititate snakes except owner convenience, tbh. Not that there is always something wrong with that, but it certainly doesn't benefit the snakes in any way. Some snakes may cope with it, some may not, but two males of breeding age will probably eventually fight, and it might result in the death of the other.

They won't miss each other if you seperate them.
