    I have seen a guy or kid I can't remember putting 3 BP's in the same tank if I am correct it was a 125 gallon, it was a nice set up but housing 3 in the same tank is asking for trouble down the road. I don't plan on housing any of/future snakes together, I think right now even with your guys knowledge I will hold off from a group photo til I feel that my normal is more relax with the mojave.

    Some people do it o get the boys ready for the girls. To the winner goes the spoils of war kind of thing. Its an idiot move if 1 really hurts another. Yes males will combat each other for females. Does it make it right? No imho. That's like letting 2 male dogs fight over who will get to breed the female. OP your bps should be ok to take a couple quick group shots. If you don't feel comfortable doing it no worries. Good luck.

    I house two BPs together and never had an issue. There's no reason why your snakes would attack each other (unless you're feeding them together).

    Saying that "housing multiple BPs together is asking for trouble" without concrete proof is a little irresponsible in my opinion. If anything, it's a personal preference just like feeding live or f/t but shouldn't be considered wrong.

    You saw the video right? I did not see a rat anywhere. I do not always agree with Satomi but...it's pretty damn straight forward in this case. . If your set up is working, great...no one said it was impossible...also we are mainly talking about adult males here I believe.
