  1. No, they will NOT be ok together.

    Even snakes of same species do not do well kept together- it is a well proven fact that ball pythons can and will eat eachother, even if they live happily and well fed for many years and are the same sizes.

    Ball Pythons and Corn Snakes require different habitats- mainly in humidity and heating. Ball pythons need higher humidity and temperatures...

    What if your new ball python has mites, other parasites or an infectious disease? He will pass them on to your corn snake. You shouldn't even have your new snake in the same room until it has been quarantined and checked over for any respiratory illnesses, mites, etc.

    Please do the smart thing and seperate them before something bad happens.


  2. they are going to eat eachother.

  3. no they will fight over territory or the bigger one will eat the smaller one. its not a good idea.

  4. What is up with everyone wanting to throw a bunch of snakes together in one cage? Snakes are solitary! I have 160 snakes and everyone is in its own enclosure. If I can do it, you can do it with two. Ball pythons are from Africa and require higher humidity and temperatures than corn snakes, which are from the U.S.

  5. no you should never put two snakes of different species together. y can put two corn snakes together or two ball pythons togethe as long as there the same size but never different species.

  6. no they require different habitats and can become stressed if with other snakes. not to mention 1 will prob eat the  other
