Cage Size?

[repticfreak7]

What is the best size viv for a pair of adult bp's? I already have a 3'x3'x15" custom made, would that be big enough?

[Tim_Cranwill]

2 cages measuring 3'x1.5'x1' would be ideal for an adult pair if you're going with custome enclosures.

I'm sorry, but I don't understand. 2 cages?

[Tim_Cranwill]

2 snakes = 2 cages.

[repticfreak7]

Ohh, ok thanks a lot.

Might I suggest you purchase a book(s) on the captive husbandry of ball pythons.

[repticfreak7]

I'm planning on it.

Ball pythons won't fight, and they definitely won't kill each other.

Will two males fight if I house them together?

You already GOT an answer to that question.

They may do some combating but they shouldn’t be housed together at all anyway! So what difference does it make?!?! At the moment, you're not even ready to take care of ONE ball python let alone TWO... and two stressed out males that won't eat this time of year for VARIOUS reasons.

Buddy, asking questions is a great way to learn but I am starting to think it's the ONLY learning you're doing right now. You need to get a good knowledge base FIRST and THEN come ask some questions to fill in the blanks. And more so, PAY ATTENTION to the answers you're getting or people will get sick of wasting their time answering you at all.

But this guy is getting a retic this month?? Surely he has some experience?? I really hope he does for his sake and the snakes.

I do, I have a burm right now. I was just asking questions to see if the care of burms and balls were any different. Sorry for not paying attention to your answers.
