    bad weather coming, considering options

    Cold snap is coming to Texas and we're expecting freezing rain and temps all weekend. It is quite likely we could lose power. I am thinking of taking my snakes yo my in laws house because they have propane heat and my power generators won't run much for long. Problem is I'd have to condense a couple snakes. Would it be a problem to keep two male bps in a 32qt rack together for a few days? I've never really run into this before.

    Are you up in the DFW area? That's where I am and our local Wal-Mart was a madhouse this evening with all the people prepping for the weather.

    Hold old are the males? If they're old or sexually mature enough, they may fight.
    If you want to put them together, then maybe have a barrier in between them.
    Condensing females together shouldn't be an issue though.

    Oh well. I'm on the west side of Fort Worth near White Settlement. I could possibly help in a pinch if you were a bit closer. Due to my last power outage panic, I bought a 7000 watt generator the next day.

    Problem is I only have 15 and 32 qt rubs in this rack and condensing anyone will be a snug fit. But it's that or risk the cold All males and 1 female are 1000+g. One 600 g female and one 300 g female. Putting them together would likely be my best bet but it would have to be in a 15 qt and that's way too small.
