Well i'm hoping to get another ball-python soon, along with a red-tail boa. However, i will have one set up for my pythons, and one setup for my boa.

I know everyone has their opinion on housing 2 or more snakes together. but i figured it's the cheapest way for me to go right now. So, when i get the new bp, what is the best way of introducing them together? One day, I will breed them. so i'm obviously going to get a bp that is the opposite sex of the one i've got now. The tank is plenty big for two babies. 2 hiding spots (i will add more when i get the new bp), it's a good 3 feet long, good heat and humidity.

the only thing i'm worried about is diseases and things like that. I'm well aware that if one has it, most likely the other will have it.

It's just 2 ball pythons...i'm not turning into petco and putting 5 snakes in with one hide...

any suggestions/tips?
