I have only ever heard of accidental cannibalism if they both try to eat the same food item, say a mouse, with one snake engulfing the head end and the other the tail end. One snake will swallow the whole mouse and keep going until it swallows the other snake too! I think this is very rare mind you. This problem can be overcome by feeding the snakes separately which is what I used to do.
all snakes are capable of being cannibalistic as all snakes are opportunists , i have heard of corns eating other corns and some not even in the instances you have mentioned , some species are more prone to eat other snakes , such as milk snakes and kingsnakes for instance , general rule of the thumb for me , is to house each of my snakes seperately i`m not prepared to take chances with any of them
