Re: Housing Ball Pythons Together

On this note, I would like to point out, It's always wise to wash your hands with hot soapy water before handling the next snake.

However unlikely it may seem, if one snake has a bacterial or viral infection, that you can pass it from snake to snake by handling them, even one at a time, unless you wash your hands between handling.

It will also pass mites, so even if you handle a snake in a pet store or at another person's house, you can transmit the disease with your hands unless proper hygiene is exercised.
