RE: KEEPING DIFFERENT PYTHONS TOGETHER

Welcome Tyler

Most people prefer to keep the subspecies seperate as they can breed producing crosses which im sure you can find debates on in past posts. The types you mentioned all have slightly different requirments to the coastal which may or may not be met by your current enclosure especially the diamond python.

RE: KEEPING DIFFERENT PYTHONS TOGETHER

You will need some humidity especially appraoching a shed, can raise the humidity levels by placing water bowl closer to heat source or misting the cage a few times a week.

How old and large is your coastal??

RE: KEEPING DIFFERENT PYTHONS TOGETHER

I would'nt be mixing any species together unless they are the same.
As far as the shed is concerned, after ther eyes clear up mine generally shed within a few days.

If they went cloudy and now are not wait a few more days and you should have a shed.

RE: KEEPING DIFFERENT PYTHONS TOGETHER

DON"T DO IT!!!!!

If they aren't the same size you may end up with one less snake.
If they are older enough to breed, you will create disgusting, unwanted, feral, mogral hybrids.
Just my 2cents.

RE: KEEPING DIFFERENT PYTHONS TOGETHER

i tell everyone the same thing dont do it keep them seperate i decided to put 2 of my coastal hatchies same size age and breed together they then got extremely stressed and refused to eat for me they went way under weight and i thought we were guna loose them so i seperated them and they started eating put the weight back on and are alot happier for it so in my opinion if you wanna stress your snakes out and eventually kill them yeah sure put them together but if you want a healthy friendly snake then keep them seperate
