    Yes, I understand.
    Again. Forgive me if I sound or sounded defensive and/or like a smart @ss. lol
    I just want to let you all know I'm not a negligable owner and that I am aware of certain risks.
    For the time being, I don't see any harm being done. I know that once they start getting bigger they should be housed seperately. For now, at their smaller, younger age, I see no major reason to keep them seperate.
    Feeding will probably start to resume. I had just attempted to feed my King within this past half an hour, and he willingly ate and took it down with no problems. I see this as a sign that perhaps the other snakes and turtles will may want to start eating again. I will get a thermostat regulated UTH, and swap all of the other snakes' UTH to a thermostat regulated version. It'll cost some cash, but it's worth it in the long run. I'll try feeding today... maybe they'll decide to eat.
    Who knows? No one till they have the food in their feeding tanks. Let's all just hope it's not a stress issue with the BP's, and they eat.
    I'm going to attempt feeding them today, and attempt feeding the other herps. Worst case scenario, they don't eat and I lose some feeders.
    In which case, I will attempt to house them seperately for a few weeks and try feeding them after a week or a week and a half to see if it is indeed a stress issue. You can never know for sure til you test every variable and are able to rule out the current hypotheses.
    I appreciate the words of advice, and I will take them. I will try anything out that makes their lives better and happier. Thank you all very very much. I still need help with my Keelback though.... can anyone lend some info please?
