    I would house them both in their own 4' x 2' x 2' PVC cage.

    Are they coming from the same place? are you planning on quarantining them first?

    yes they come from the same place. i think im going to quarantine them from my old BP.. btw about quarantine, how far should i place them from the other snake? different room, different floor, or different house?

    You want them as far as possible (within reason) the bigger thing is not to have cross contamination (interact with the new GTP's then go straight to your established reptiles) I would suggest only dealing with the new GTP's one day, then the next only working with your established reptiles...
