    Not sure what made you think this forum was the place to sell them. Try this one:

    If you want to learn more about their husbandry, pull up a chair and ask questions, but don't whine about the answers you ask for.

    I would suggest you redouble your research efforts.

    No, no it wouldn't. Thousands of BPs get shipped every month...thousands of them don't live together.

    Personal education maybe, but nothing that will benefit your BPs, I'm afraid.

    We don't talk like that around here, but just consider it part of your continuing education.

    and i hope you have some type of degree to be on here telling everyone everything that you know seeing as how you are apparently know everything there is to know. I would rather get an animal local then buy it online and ship it anywhere. Would you ship your 6 yr old daughter in a box across who knows how many miles....??? I hope not, and I won't treat my animals that way either. they are fine where they are

    Re: 2 balls

    googirl, i understand your looking for a home for them or to learn more. either way knowledge is power. Now no one here wants to offend you. we all just care greatly about reptiles. and in this section Specifically ball pythons. so cool your jets we are all friends here.

    As for separation, it is possible for them to live together happily and healthy. there is no doubt about that. It has be done and it will continue to be done. is it recommended, no. But this is strictly because the risks usually out way any benefits if any. now rather then lecture you on this because you seem to be upset right now ill say that there is a HUGE amount of correct information located on this site. and im 100% sure your self being a smart girls, can figure out what you need to do. you will find in the information the pros and cons of the setup you have and what is a must change situation for your self to give better care. im sure you care about them so you'll figure out quickly the optimal way to go about things. i can tell you though. separating them will make it very much easier to feed and such. and if sickness develops you wont have 2 vet bills rather then 1.

    if you upgrade there heating and switch them to tubs, i know its not right for me to suggest this per-say but a snake in a tub enclosure is VERY easy to conceal. and you could maybe bring them with you. not only that but tubs are the cats meow for care. they are so easy to maintain a caveman could do it.

    there are many different ways to go about the care of a ball python but you will find all the correct ways have major similarities.
