  1. Not a good idea. Snakes are solitary. And with the dangers of diseases being spread such as Inclusion Body Disease, I wouldn't recommend it. I have 150 snakes and everyone is in its own enclosure. And I hope you do your research before getting a Burmese python. They aren't beginner snakes and will require a huge enclosure. They can be 6 to 10 feet long at a year of age. My smallest is 1 year old and 8 feet long.


  2. No because different species have diiff. environmental needs, and with such a difference in size you may come home one day and only find the larger snake alone in the tank.

  3. NO!  do not keep different species of snakes in the same tank and do not keep different sizes/age in the same tank

  4. no burmese would prolly mess the other ones face up lol

  5. ummm no they both need their seperate cages because many snakes dont get along especially if they are two different breeds. You definatly dont want to keep the snakes ugh. They grow huge and I mean huge. Send it off to a reptile sancuary or the zoo. Dont keep it!

  6. If you even have to ask the question, DO NOT get a burm!!  Be responsible!

  7. you shouldn't keep 2 different species of snakes together in the same habitat. Even though they are both snakes they both have different needs that you can't make a happy medium for because one or both of your snakes will suffer. Your better off getting a pair of either species that way you don't have an accident. I have seen snakes eat other snakes on more than occasion and it's not a pretty sight to see one of your beloved pets hanging out of your other snakes mouth. I hope this helps you
