Dean.........As long as your females are getting along, I say no problem. Even though you are feeding them separately, I would wipe their faces with a damp cloth to make sure there is no food scent lingering after the've fed. Otherwise, you will have to watch them carefully after feeding. Having grown up in the good old days in South Florida, we collected most of the Indigos in the winter breeding season. I can't remember ever having any fights among females. We NEVER put males together in the same bag or cage. I kind of like large cages with a pair or group of animals on display. I know the mantra is to house your snakes separately, but in the wild I have seen a certain amount of gregariousness among like species. Yellow rats especially, come to mind. Good luck!
