Red Tail Boa HELP!!?
What's your question??
Reply:No you need to keep them seperate.


When in a few years they do reach mating age,size and very importantly for the female weight the male has to go through a cooling down period and food stopped for a short time before warming back up again and feeding properly.You cant do this if they are both in the same viv.


Also if you house them together they may become stressed especially if you stop feeding one due to it shedding but still feed the other one who may not be going through this process at the same time.You could end up with one or even both of them very ill.
