they are considered terrestrial but most would argue there semi-arboreal.
bascially just add a few brances in your enclosure and theyl be happy.
best to keep them seperate until mating this wont just ensure you still have both of them when it comes mating time but also increase your mating chances.

My spotty's tank is 45cm tall, 45cm wide and 60cm long. That's the minimum tank size for that species, but she's getting a bigger tank when she's fully grown. She has a branch for climbing, and she does use it.

For macs i thought it was 1/2adult lenght in width 1/4 in height and depth
ie if the snake is 1.2 meters the tank is 60cm long 30 high 30 depth

my spotteds mainly just chill on the bottom of the cage and when they do climb they tend to fall of somtimes and i would always seperate them except for when u want to mate them
