People usually say not to keep snakes together (even the same kind) but if there are plenty of hides and space it shouldn't be a problem.

|  | Regular Member | Join Date: Aug-07 Location: sydney Gender: | | | | have seen pics of pythons and elapids housed together on this site.
I wouldn't do it myself but it can be done as in the wild they would not turn around and think someone else lives close by so I'll move...........
Once again I wouldn't..................
