I would not do this. I breed JCPs and I do not even keep the females together. Every snake gets there own cage, there are reasons for this. Like mentioned in the other post plus if one snake does get something I can catch it before it passes on to every other snake. Some people do it without any trouble at all but others do it and get every problem there can be. I say it is just not worth it in the long run!


:I am considering housing my Dumerils Boa with a Jungle Carpet Python (after proper quarentine period). Does anyone see a problem with this if the enclosure is large enough to give both snakes ample room? I know most people agree that if you can't afford seperate enclosures, then you can't afford two snakes. I do not agree with this as I have no problem purchasing a seperate enclosure, but I have a large display enclosure that is just awesome and the two snakes together would really add to my living room. What problems might I encounter with this mix? ANY feedback (positive or negative) will be appreciated.
