Ball Python Issue

[Will0W783]

To me that snake looks very dehydrated, and both snakes (Jennifer and Kyle) look underweight. Ball pythons are not supposed to be slender snakes. Kyle is very underweight for his length as well.
The fact that you do not even know what the temperatures and humidity are in the cage is worrisome as well. What research did you do prior to buying these animals? A cursory Google search on ball pythons will tell you the temperature and humidity range you NEED to keep them at, as well as proper food sizes. A ball python is a constrictor and can swallow prey far larger than non-constricting snakes can. This is because of the structure of the jaw. There is no solid joint, only ligaments and muscle connecting the bottom jaw to the upper, and there is a separate bone for the left and right sides of the bottom jaw as well. This allows the snake to appear to dislocate its jaw and take down food much larger than the head of the snake. You should be feeding a single food item that is slightly larger than the girth of the snake at its widest point.

Also, housing them together is NOT a good idea. The reason Jennifer is more active with Kyle in there is she is stressed. If they are always together, it's because they are both trying to be in the optimal spot in the cage. Its a form of competition for resources. Snakes are not social creatures. With the exception of a few colubrids and crotalids that hibernate in large communal dens, snakes will not live near other snakes in the wild. Housing two together increases stress for both animals, weakens their immune systems and leads to health problems.

Please separate them into individual enclosures, and please please do more research on these snakes.
