    I'm not even gonna bring up the boa and BP because some people have already addressed it but all I can say is you might want to watch how often they are soaking themselves because that could be a sign of mites on both snakes.

    Most will agree that it is a problem. Ball pythons and Boas have much different housing and temperature requirements first of all. Second of all, ball pythons are much smaller than Boas and there could be a risk of cannibalism.

    It looks to me like those two snakes might have mites because they are both soaking in the water bowl which isn't common for either species to do regularly.


    Your snakes are very pretty, I just think you have a little bit of husbandry to work on.

    Sorry, I didn't realize English was not your first language.

    The goal of all of these forums is to accept people into the community and to expand the community. I don't think some of you are doing anyone, including the hobby, any favors by being so judgemental and rude.

    If you see a problem, you can make a suggestion without being so condescending.
    People should do their research in the first place.

    On a different note, welcome to the forums, wima! You'll enjoy it here and find loads of advice. I know I have. By the way, those are fabulous bps and a great boa!

    Re: some of my bp

    Ok I got the message that my BP and Boa should not be together in one enclosure
    First of all: this was just temporarily, next week their new home will be finished and they all will have a seperate enclosure. Everybody happy (including the snakes)
    Second: the person from whom I bought the snakes (also a BP and Boa breeder) told me it wouldn't be a problem to put both of them together (I just trusted his judgement because he has a lot of experience with these creatures).
    I joined this group to learn more about my pets, it's just is hard for me to understand everything because it is all in English (but I try).
