1.1 ball python means 1 male (before the ".") and 1 female (after the ".").


First, welcome! For a baby, a 40 gallon aquarium is going to be a bit overwhelming with too much open space. It will also be very difficult to heat and keep humidity up with all the air space.

I would consider starting them in a smaller aquarium (10 or 20 gallon) if you prefer a glass enclosure, or even better, a sterilite or rubbermaid tub for each of them.

I'm sure that other members are going to offer you great suggestions! Once again - welcome (sorry so brief, but I'm off to bed! LOL)
