Housing 2 young BPs in the same cage?

[JodanOrNoDan]

I kinda explained all that as best as I could . They weren't competing for the most favourable places as there were many places of each temperature to choose from . I realise that it doesn't suit your agenda to read hear that but it's true . Many times they'd both be curled together in a hide in the cooler side and again there would have been two or more hides with the same temps and a few quiet hiding places as well - all the same temps . I made a point of providing many hides in the warm side , the middle and the cooler side .


More often than not they'd be together . Why would they both always want to be warm then want to be cooler at the very same time , it doesn't add up . Why was the female following the male as often as the male would follow the female ?


You'd imagine that on occasion one would want to be warm and the other want to be cool , yet that very rarely occurred .

I've been totally honest , I can only relay what I observed .

They simply didn't feed anywhere near as well as they do when they're apart . That's the difference in my experience .

I have actually been wanting to do this experiment for awhile with a male and female that I know very well and record everything that goes on. If it starts to go south I will stop the experiment. I am going to get a very large tub I am going to use identical everythings throughout the enclosure. I am on ambient so in theory there will no one place better than the other in the enclosure.

I absolutely do not advise new keepers to attempt this. Unless you know your animals very well and are prepared to loose one don't even think about it.
