  1. no


  2. no no no...that is too much of a size difference...the red tail will eventually eat the ball.

  3. i think so, i would put them together a little at a time, if you do not already have the other, you will need a seperat tank they might not get along. just phase them together

  4. As i have said before on this forum  DO NOT EVER MIX SPECIES  as they may have natural parasites they carry that are not toxic to themselves . however may be extremely toxic to the other species. you are talking about mixing a animal from two different continents. completely different habitats.

  5. Look at these pictures:

    Bruce B, if you have a problem with other people's answers, rather than insult them, offer a better answer than that nonsense you gave. You've really proven your intelligence, or lack thereof. I'm not surprised that you're a convicted criminal. It shows in your answers. What kind of fool would put an 11 foot python with a 4 foot boa?

  6. I don't think parasites are the biggest problem for that poor python, the answer is yes(if you really dont like your ball python

  7. I would most definetly advise against it.  Snakes can be unpredictable no matter the breed when spooked.   Also almost all anakes will eat anything smaller than itself.  Red Tails will even eat other red tails if they are smaller.  Also if they are together at feeding time they could potentially hurt or kill each other as they constrict their food if they are to close together.

  8. yes....i have a 11 foot rock python in the same tank as my 4 foot boa and there fine.  just make sure one or the other isnt sick or have mites before putting them together.    ADDED.... that pic of the boa eating the ball is BULL%^$@.  I dont even know why someone would fake a pic like that.  Top Contributor????  All your answers are "check out cornsnake.com"  prolly a spammer
