No, I'm gradually asking questions and getting answers, as my own personal choice. I don't want to throw a ton of questions out at you, although I have many. I just really like to know some peoples' views and reasoning on certain subjects.

Cages are not the problem, I have two 4'x2's that are empty. I think the risks are no higher or lesser than the example that I gave you in the previous post.

And you don't have to answer any of the questions if you don't want to, of course. (But I don't see why you wouldn't want to, considering you brought the topic up.)

Your right Jennifer, I'm just pissed off that Will deleted the last thread wich would've probably have answered most of your questions. I'm sorry if I acted ruth, by all means ask me anything that you want to.

Read this link http://www.ball-pythons.net/index.ph...89716d35c49817 it only mentions bp's but it's the same idea and it's on this forum as well :shock: .

But I could see keeping Ball pythons together not being nearly as harmful (even though I still am not into the idea). But keeping entirely different species together is..well.. in my opinion, just asking for trouble. Do what you will; nothing I can say will stop you. :roll:

Ok I have read some good reasons as to why not to house differant species together but look at it like this. All snakes have normal flora inside thier bodies. Alot of these organisms are harmful to other animals, even other reptiles. Even a quarentine period does not get rid of these, nor would you want to get rid of these. Normal flora are needed and in fact we humans have many normal flora too, but it doesn;t mean that we want the snakes normal flora in our bodies. Same way with differant snakes sharing organisms. Water bowls are the main reason organisms are transferred, and therefore by placing more than one animal in a cage with the same water bowl, they are in a sense sharing all those organisms. This is the best reason I would never do it, but hey to each his own.
