Here's Kaa and Verdi. Bad picture since it was thru the glass. But they just looked too cute to pass up.http://myreptileplanet.com/imagehosting/thum_243476449eb59552.jpg (http://myreptileplanet.com/vbimghost.php?do=displayimg&imgid=712)

Nice BPs, are they together for breeding or are you housing them together?.

We just house Verdi, Medusa (both girls) and Kaa in the same huge tank. Kaa has been at it with both girls. We're not pushing the breeding but if one of the them gets pregnant I'd be happy!

Isis (another girl) is in a smaller tank. She's smaller and we won't put her in until she is closer to their size. That and we just got her well. She was a return-rescue. We had given her to a friend who said she really wanted her and didn't take care of her at all. Took a long time to get her better.

Not to sound rude or anything but I would really advise against housing them together. Housing more then one snake together is very risky and even non cannablistic snakes like BPs have been known to eat a cage mate. I actually know a link to a case of a BP eating its cage mate, its sad but if needed I can post. Just a freindly warning :).

I agree here. Not only that, but you can run into feeding issues, you force them to compete for the best hide, best basking area etc. Not to mention health issues. If one of them gets sick, they all will. Or, what if someone regurges or has another issue, how will you know who it was?

Agreed with the first two on not housing them together but there was somthing else I noticed in the picture that no one has pointed out yet or questioned.

Are you using astro turf for their bedding??????

If so get it out of there. Astro turf is VERY fatal to reptiles if injested and promotes skin diseases. It also prevents or completely removes humidity which is important for shedding and respritory health. Just a heads up if that's what you're using.
