    Re: I need opinions - 2 snakes 1 cage

    Sometimes, when cannibalism happens, both snakes die, as the meal was too large.

    I've not had it happen to me...because I have never housed baby ball pythons together, and only put adults together for breeding.
    Yawn.

    I've also heard that if you fart and sneeze at the same time, your eardrums will rupture.

    It's never happened to me, because I am careful to only fart, then sneeze but I worry about all those irresponsible parents who feed their children foods high in polysaccharides.

    In one case, a young child with a head cold ate a whole jar of sauerkraut and is now deaf. True story, I know the friend of the second cousin who plays cribbage with local parent of the kid it happened to.
