Will they be ok?
no they should not be housed together!
that cage is way too big for a ball python!

There are 3 hides, but they both like this ONE hide (no matter where it is placed in the tank), so they fight over it. I'm not saying this would happen if you choose to keep yours in the same tank, but it is a possibility. Anyway, my two cents.
debate? where? i have yet to see anything that said its ok to keep them together.
