It's very typical for pet stores to save space & keep snakes together...and the ppl working in pet stores aren't usually that knowledgeable, they are there to SELL you something, so they often tell you what you "want to hear" (ie. the easiest, cheapest way) so they don't kill the sale. Understand? We aren't here to make money off you...we have no reason to make things up...we only want what's best for the animals in question, because they cannot speak for themselves & suffer greatly.

    Believe it or not, snakes can die from repeated regurgitations- they lose digestive enzymes & must NOT be fed again for at least 2 weeks after a regurge so they have time to rebuild their digestive enzymes...otherwise they'll regurge again. This causes dehydration, organ failure, shock & death if not corrected. When you do feed a snake again (after waiting a couple weeks after a regurge) it's also best to feed smaller prey than usual, and ONLY ONE item...to make sure the regurge is not repeated.

    So if you insist on keeping these snakes together you may end up killing one or both...just so you know....don't say no one explained it. Your name says you
    love them...now prove it by housing them correctly...separately.
    Relax I'm asking for advice here.. So everyone here also want their pets to stay healthy and good condition.. Yes I agree with u, seller and store they only want to push sell, and don't have much knowledge ects..

    As the point of getting other enclosure, I do mentioned I will get it right away now.. So don't worries.. I pay for those ball python in SGD $730 of cause I will do the best I can..
