    Male Female racks?
    Do you guys keep your male and females in separate racks? I haven't done it yet, but wondering if say I have a female in the tub directly below a male tub. Can this make the male come off feeding because he knows a female is near. Or will this only happen during "breeding season"?

    I've been keeping males and females on the same rack no problem.
    But I have heard that males will go off feed sometimes. But I don't think it's a common occurrence.

    I keep my babies/juvies in the same rack, regardless of gender.

    Most of my males went off feed all winter anyways, no matter where they were and what proximity they were to my females.

    I don't see a problem with it.

    Honestly, I keep my snakes in close enough quarters that I really doubt it matters if they are on the same rack or not...though I do keep breeder males and breeder females on separate racks.

    i keep my males in a seperate rack from my females. I like to keep my males a little cooler year round tho so that is my main reason for it.
