added 2nd carpet to enclosure

[cryptochild4]

Hey there, i just got a 2nd carpet python, she is a little larger than my current one (not sure of sex on my 1st one) and when they met my first one started panicking and has been trying to escape ever since.

the new one is very placid about it all.

can i expect the smaller one to calm down and deal with having a cage mate or should i look at getting a separate enclosure for the new one?


thanks heaps

You dont want to stress out the other one too much. Im guessing the smaller one is a female as well, if it was a male, I dont think it would panic as much.
It would be best to get a new Enclosure.

Definately get a second enclosure, not only will the smaller one keep stressing but it may also be eaten. Not a good idea.
