    Rack Question
    Would it be ok if I put two same size/weight/sex ball python in the same tub (41qt.)? For example, I have a 300g female pastel and a 250g female pastel in separate tubs and if I could put them together, I could get one more ball python (there's one I like right now).

    Would it be ok?
    Maybe????
    Would I?
    No!
    Why are you keeping lightweights in breeder tubs anyway?

    Housing snakes together isn't a good idea no matter what the cage.

    From what I have read its not something I would feel comfortable doing. I like to be able to monitor health and behaviors for each individual snake. I think housing two together would create stress.

    I dont have any personal experience with it, but i know several people who keep smaller snakes together in the same tub using a divider to seperate them.

    I've used divided and housed two without a divider. Now that i been keeping for 15+ years i would say that separate tubs are the way to go. but in a pinch put a divider in the tub but be ready to upgrade.

    Thanks for your input. I'm going to get another rack and house them separately.
