You Told Me So!!!!

ok, you all told me so, keeping 2 ball pythons in 1 cage is bad....ok you're right...

so, for the new people who don't know me, hi, i had 2 ball pythons,2 males in 1 cage, well after about 2 months, they stopped eating NONE of them ate, ok actually my smaller one, went off feed then the bigger one the following week after, anyways, so they havnt fed since Jan. or Feb. it's now june 2nd, but, anyways so back to the main reason, I decided that, i cannot care for both of these, i can, but they arent eating right, so i decided to take the one i bought back to the store i got it from tell them what happened and they took it back...i didn't really care for a refund, but igot a free rat, i rushed home, and tried to feed my smaller one, and he ate, now i dont know if it was just timing, but they didnt eat the week before, but then when i got rid of one, the other one ate about an hour after being alone.... maybe it was timing but he's eating again.

Glad that your snake is eating now, and that it is living alone now.
But I would not have taken the other snake back just because it was not eating. I would have just made another cage up and went on from there.

well, i didnt have the money to build, or buy another cage. I'd rather give up one, rather than have both of them gone, no i wasnt feeding them together, they fed in seperate cardboard boxes.

Probably the best decision if your budget can only support the one snake in one cage then best to make that decision (I'm sure it was a hard one for you) for the benefit of the snake you kept and yourself. Glad to hear it's eating again.
