Tomorrow I will be getting 2 Ball Pythons. The belong to my friends brother and when he found out I was looking to get one he offered me his entire set up. He keeps collecting reptiles and is starting to get over crowded so he was happy to find a home for them. They are not adults yet, and not babies I guess they're adolescents?

He has them as a pair right now in a 30 gallon tank. From what I have read that is not going to work and I should separate them right? If they aren't full grown will this set up work for a little while? I will probably have a lot of questions as I go. I have never owned a snake before, I just have my Leopard Gecko. Does anyone have any words of advice to start me off?

When I asked the guys sister to ask him how much he wanted for everything she said that he is giving it to you and if you want to slip him a couple of bucks that's fine, but not to worry about it. Well he is bringing them to my house, setting them up and showing me how to care for them. I think I should give him something. Anyone have any idea how much that should be?
