    My RTB's
    Greetings All

    Here are my 2.1 RTB'S, chilling on their Heating Pads.
    Hopefully they will breed for me in the 2018 season.

    Nice pic. I'm going to assume they are all together just for the pic and that you arent cohabitating them unless breeding.

    They have been co-habiting for about 3 years or so.
    All are healthy.

    I know what comes next, the lecture on Co-habiting, but let me first say that I know that Co-habiting is frowned upon, and I know the reasons why.
    I have been keeping snakes for about 17 years or so.

    They are co-habitated in the following sized enclosure.

    Length; 3 Meters.
    Breadth: 1 Meter.
    Height 2 Meters.

    This is quite literally a walk in enclosure, so space is more than ample.

    Sorry if I sounded a bit offish in the first part of my reply, but I just needed to let you know that I am aware of the Co-habiting dramas.

    Nope, no lecture. You said you know the reasons why its bad. Your snakes, your risk but i will leave you with this photo of baby BCi who ate her sibling.....

    Luckily the boa lived i guess but it took weeks for it to poop out pieces of it's sibling and it came out in coiled lumps i guess. And i guess its doing fine and the new owner is expecting a litter from her(the one that it's sibling was a female).

    Yip, that is one of the risks.
    I have once before had a corn eat a sibling.
    So far as I say they have been together for 3 years.
    My main problem is space to hold 3 enclosures big enough for 3 big Boas.
