i have heard its not the best to house large and small snakes in the same room as it stresses out the smaller of the two.

I have never heard that before. I keep a burmese python and anacondas in the same room as baby milksnakes. No problems.

It's not a bad idea to keep boas separate from pythons however, as there is a risk of the boas carrying IBD (inclusion body disease) they can show no symptoms, but IBD is fatal to pythons.

A long and strict quarantine period should be used though.. at least.
