Can I put Two Pythons Together?

[Rhianon]

i wouldn't mix species mate

re Carpet Pythons
i and plenty other Carpet Keepers i know,keep same sized females and same sized pairs together without issues

re Feeding
ALWAYS Separate at feeding time,i take out which ever snake is easiest to get out the tank and feed it in a tub,the other snake i feed in the tank

NEVER keep 2 males together


as said,it's only Carpet Pythons i keep


cheers shaun

Shaun, how do you think two females would be together?

Hey Rhianon,
Something happened to a breeder in QLD recently that puts the whole subject in perspective.
A colony of 4 Diamonds kept outside for years with 'No problems'. (Plenty of people keep Diamonds together)
A new female was introduced to the colony......not a young snake but an appropriately sized 4 year old.

All was good for a few weeks till the keeper came home one day to find the new female had been devoured by one of its new cage mates.
Steer clear of keeping and snakes together.........In the past I have suggested that Diamonds would be ok together but it seems that idea has now fallen by the wayside.
