    I wouldn't put them with any snake. I know if they live with another bp one could be dominant and the other stop eating. I know some people have housed them together, but I think it's too much of a risk. I'm not sure about other species, but if one gets sick it's going to be hard to quarantine.

    Some snakes can be kept together without any issues; unfortunately, the ball python is not one of these.

    They will stress out, and I believe due to their secretive nature they struggle for the best hiding spots and one will be dominant over the other.

    It's possible, but wouldn't you rather spend a little more money and have two happy snakes?

    Can Ball Pythons be housed in a 30 gallon tank with another Ball Python, or any other snake for that matter? If so, are there are snakes specifically that can be housed with a Ball Python?
