Why wasn't this public? Is it unsafe? Unpredictable? Messages like this bother me. Just because they're small does NOT mean you can pop them safely.

you can offer another pr killed in a few days, just leave the room for awhile after you offer it, im guessing your snake was startled and spit it up, not a big deal at all, some individuals like a little privacy, good luck!

It wasn't public because it is from another reptile site and I didn't think that it was appropriate.

I have quite afew sand boa's and there is no need to pop them its not safe you can tell by looking at the tails females will have short tails from vent to tip of tail and males will be longer from vent to tip.Females will also have hips males wont its very noticable.Hope that helps best of luck:):)

I was reading through the thread again and noticed this.It does not matter if their both males or females you can house them together either sex.I have 2 males together right now and they've been together for months without a problem.

Sexual maturity has nothing to do with it you never mentioned males housed with females you said you can't house two males together when you can.If you have 2 adult males with 1 adult female the males will stimulate each other aswell as stimulate the female into breeding other than that it's perfectly safe to house 2 males together at any age.:)
