if i ever did notice that happen i would spit them up right away as i already got an other viv setup and ready to go my gf is always about and there is always some one home watcing them
Why don't you jsut use that viv.
Im really confused why you would be still risking co-habiting, being a snake lover.
Well... best of luck |

do you think this would be a good idea??
You have an Amel and a Carolina(normal).
As it stands, everyone has given you their opinions in regards co-habiting, and you have decided to make your own choice.
One thing I do think you have made a complete and total stuff up on though, is the fact you don't know what sex they are.
I hope you have a penny jar somewhere with a good £300 in it, ready to use at the drop of a hat.
If one turns out to be female and become gravid when they are to young to safely reproduce, then that shows an even bigger irresponsibility in ownership.
A small female stands an incredibly high high chance of becoming egg-bound. An egg-bound female is NOT an easy or cheap fix.
Get at least 2 different EXPERIENCED people to probe/pop you snakes to find out the sex of them.

They do that to save money and people think 'Awh cute!' and buy it..
What I think BE means is, effectively if their your snakes, which they are, you can do what you wish... such like theyr'e my snakes I might go swing them round my head see what happens kinda attitude.
Think thats what you meant BE? |

| Yes, it was an odd thing to say, just because someone has bought another living being doesn't mean they can do what they like, in fact, in my opinion, if you take ownership of another life form it is your duty to give it the best life possible. |

I understood what you meant, and I also will not tolerate arguments on here.
You are correct, they are his and he can do what he wants, but it's incredibly risky, and unfortunately Ivan comes across as asking for opinions, then not listening to anything, so what's the point of asking?
Co-habiting always has been a touchy subject for many on here, some people do it, others don't, but we on a whole don't recommend it and for people to say 'I don't care what you lot say' is generally irresponsible and is something we don't want to see or hear on this forum. |

plz no arguing.
ivan you have your opinions and BE you have yours.
BE, you might be rite (you are) but let ivan learn from his mistakes. wen one of his snake gets to stressed and dies or eats another then he has learnt his lesson and he hopefully wont do it again.
ivan, im not sure asking for advice about keeping corns together is the irte thing to do as if you have read other post on here you will find everyone hates it including me. i was thinking about it last year but read up on it and decided that it was a bad idea. you should have done the same.
BE i like wat you sed about giving them the best possible life you could. wats the point in getting 2 corns and keeping them in the same cage wen you could give them a better quality of life by keeping them seperate. in my opinion it's stupid, if you can afford to buy 2 snakes then you should be able to afford 2 tanks, if you can't afford two tanks then don't buy 2 snakes. simple. give them the best quality of life.
ivan, you would like it if you had to share a 1 bed flat with someone you absolutalty hated would you, smae for corns, they only ever come together in the wild for mating. thats all. and thats all you should be doing, either bringing them togthere for mating (which i wouldn't suggest at this moment in time as they are not adults) or if you have both of them owt together then maybe you can hold them togther but don't keep them together. plz. do it for all of us.
sorry about how long this was but had to get my point across. |

if this is such a bad thing to bo do y is it all the reptile shops said it ok to do and today i went to a reptile shop called the jungle and they have got so many baby corns together they have been open very long time if it was so bad that they keep on eating each other and dieing
if it was not for people joining forums then alot off snakes would be dead by now im i right ????
y are all them reptile shops say diffrent thats wat i dont get |

Reptile shops need to keep alot of stock in a small area. To do this, alot of shops house snakes together. They wont do this and then tell you not to keep them together, they would be contradicting themselves.
With small corns the odds of them causing each other harm are higher. Also understand that you are new to keeping snakes and may not notice signs of stress. |

you dont under stand how many was put together tho would they not loose out on money cos they would die or eat each other
i have been to reptile shops that dont pair them they also say the say y is there such a big debate on this ???
they had 2 adult corns there paired together and the tub was sooo small whats all that about surely they should be stressed and eating eachother |
