well we have generated a discussion from which i find both sides interesting

but

i do have a worry now. I kept snakes for many years before circumstances changed that and i am getting back into it. i have bred before, several species but now i am worried about something that has never troubled me before

It seems the possibility does exist for a snake to harm another whilst kept together for mating. What are the ways to avoid or reduce the likelihood of this happening ?

All opinions greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance
