Snakes getting sick is not always because of bad husbandry. RIs are easy to get when you are keeping two snakes together, whether breeding or cohabitation. That's not poor husbandry, that's a risk you take when you stress these snakes. Breeders know and take the risk of RIs every breeding season.
Can you keep snakes together, yes. Do I think it's a good idea, no.
You can do as you please, just realize that we all dedicate a good chunk of our lives listening, learning, and teaching via sites like this one. I learn new things every day, including things that I'm doing wrong. When I hear/read that my way isn't ideal I take it on the chin, rethink my ways, and make the necessary changes.
