Hey so i went to a new pet store today that i havent been to and i saw that they had a burmese python in with a BCC they were both about 4 feet and the people at the pet store said it was fine as long as they are the same size to keep them together (which makes sense) but i always thought it was a bad ideal to keep snakes together that noramlly live in different parts of the world, so if anyone knows if its ok or not ok let me know

In general it is not recommened to keep snakes of different species together . They have different requirements and the presence of another snake can result in stress on both snakes . There is also the risk of passing illness or parisites from one snake to the other .

I agree. Simply what Ferrets stated.

also, you would have to feed them seperatly. It's not fun seperating two snakes trying to eat the same time.
