two ball pythons in one tank?

[aalomon]

There's a lot of things that only has to happen once, but that doesn't stop people from doing them. There's a chance something could happen to a snake by itself, that doesn't stop you from keeping it does it? If you know what you're doing then chances are you'll never have a problem. Having kept multiple snakes together for years without any problems shows that it can be done if done right. Again...just cause there's a chance something could go wrong doesn't mean it will. There's a chance I could die riding my GSX-R but that doesn't stop me from riding it.

Problem with that is I believe that it is our job to keep the snake as healthy as possible. When I use something I try to avoid things with high risks or things that only have risks and no benefits to the animal. I dont use unregulated UTH because they can over heat, even though it would save me money. I dont use pine because it can cause URI even though I like the smell and look over aspen. Especially with how inexpensive it it to set up a second tank, why take an unnecessary risk? Just so it looks good to you? Again, there is no reason to house snakes together unless you are breeding them.
