How many???

I am wondering, during non breeding session, is it possible to have 2 or more bp to be kept in the same enclosure?

Possible - yes. The pet stores do it.
Recommended - no.

You will find most people here don't house their snakes together at all. Its just easier for everyone to keep them separated. The only time I keep snakes together are when I hatch babies and they stay in the same tub until they shed.

Definitely not recommended-- more harm comes from it than good. Snakes don't require companions and giving them roommates tends to result in dominance copulation and undue stress.

Will there be any danger to the animals if they are kept together for a few days?.

Probably not if they are of similar size.

It's the term I've heard used for when the bigger, more dominant snake sits on the smaller one. I've witnessed tail wraps occurring with two cohabited snakes as well, although the OP in that case couldn't be sure if his snakes were male or female. :/

It's a possibility. If the animals come from different places, one could pass ailments on to the other- mites, parasites, RIs, etc.

people do it, but I do not recommend keeping them together in groups, no..... the one exception I have done is when a male is on their first breeding year and not starting the motions, I will through a small proven in for a day and that sometimes promotes the newbie to start. That is the only reason I would put multiple together
