Re: 2 snakes one cage

if you want two animals, you need two cages.

Re: 2 snakes one cage

One snake gets sick both get sick. They compete for the same hot spots and it just isn't a good thing.

Re: 2 snakes one cage

There are a number of reasons to not do this:

1. Possible cannibalism during or around feeding time.

2. If one snake gets sick, the other does too.

3. A snake regurged. Which one? Can't tell.

4. Unintentional breeding.

5. Snakes are solitary animals, that only interact to breed. Keeping them together creates stress that can result in behavioral & health problems.

6. There are no notable good reasons (good for them, that is) to house them together.
