    ball pythons

    Hello i was wondering if there is a possibility to have more than 1 BP in one terrarium. It would be big enough, i just dont know if the snakes would like that?

    It is not a good idea. They will end up competing for the prime spaces, cause more stress. Also, how would you plan to do feedings? That would be tricky, I don't recommend it.

    it would also make quarantine impossible, putting the animals at risk.

    They are not communal animals.
    Can it be done? Yes
    Should it be done? Not really.

    If you were to buy something Like an Animal Plastics T8 enclosure with the divider, you could make it work. Maybe look at one of those, if you are considering building your own. It can be done, but you just need to plan ahead for what kind of heat you are going to use, and how it's laid out, before you start your build.

    Search the DIY area.
    There are many that build their own enclosures.
    Plan for animal care first.
