Can I house my ball python with hermit crabs?

No?

Well, then how about I just show you some pictures. :P

Hermy house: (More foliage coming soon)

And yes, they are being housed in what was once the Croc skink tank. I couldn't stand to see it sitting empty any longer. :tears: I had hermies as a kid and they were my fave. I'm actually really glad to have them again. :oops: Oh, and please don't make fun of my photos or my choice of reading material. :P

Nice hermits! :gj:
I like the BP pic!

No, you cannot house you BP with hermit crabs............

That's a sweet hermithouse, and the highest "up periscope" I think I've ever seen!

Ain't no way I'd make fun of your reading material - I only wish I could tame my jittery mind enough to read similar stuff.

No they eat your python!

The hermies and snake are adorable, but can not be housed together as they have totally different needs. Have you tried housing your hermies in a semi-aquatic setup? We found that they live much longer when in a tank that's about 50/50 land and water. We also offer fresh foods in addition to the hermit crab food, and have had them live long, healthy lives. My oldest daughter has 4 of them in her room right now set up like that.

I think the thread's subject is a joke. She is not really housing them together. Good one, btw. I love the periscope. That is one adorable BP. Nice setup for the hermies too.

LOL no it is not good when your Balls and Crabs are combined:P
