    If you just picked up the one yesterday why is it in with the other animal? You need to quarantine, quarantine, quarantine.


    Two males will "breed" each other -- it's a display of dominance.

    You really out to have considered QT. Not to mention why would you put two males together?

    Also I believe that a lock is not conclusive evidence that you have a female. There have been several members who have seen one lock up and then to find out that their supposed female isn't a female.

    So will a female "breed" another female?

    I agree! You should never house two snakes together unless you are breeding, and even then you still dont put two males together.
