There is nothing that says Boas and Pythons shouldn't be housed in the same room. If so where did you receive that info. My father for 30 years kept bloods, balls, and RTB's in the same room no problem. I in turn kept boas and bloods in the same room for over 10 years. Since getting into Balls and before getting out of the larger snakes I also kept the balls housed in the same rooms. I mean look at Ralph D. he keeps Freak Boa and his snow project in the same room as his balls with no problem. I know being cautious is a good this and by all means practice good QT, but to share such a broad reach of the truth is not right by any means. Just my 2 cents
