    Other pets with snakes in the same room?!?!

    Would i be able to have a rabbit in the same room as my snakes? or will that tempt them to get hungry by the scent?

    I'm housing 17 rats in the same room as my snakes, and I only get a feeding response on feeding day. You should be just fine.

    Our ball pythons share a huge room with the rat colony (somewhere around 80 I think at the present time...that's rats NOT snakes LOL) and it doesn't bother them. I am careful that I don't smell of rat when I get a snake out or take the snake anywhere really close up to the rat enclosures.

    We house our pet rabbit in the same room as one of our retired, pet ball pythons - no problems at all.

    Snakes and rats in the same room here also. They do have great feeding responses, but then again they always have thankfully.
