Can a Juvenile Columbian Red-Tail Boa be in the same cage as a ball python?
I am not sure where some of these people get their information from but I will tell you from research and personal experience what I have found and you can use the information I have to make a more informed decision. I currently only have a half a dozen snakes but I house over three dozen reptiles, actual count is at 35 but that will be 36 tomorrow when I pick up a rescue veiled. I have a ball python and two red-tails and I can tell you that they might live for a bit together but it is a very bad idea. Besides parasites and a very nasty diseases carried by boas and pythons that will kill them they do not get along well. There are probably people out there that house them together but they shouldn’t. People do many things they shouldn’t do, that doesn’t make it right and it doesn’t mean you should do it. My red-tails are seven feet and nearly twelve feet last summer when we measured them last. They have both in the middle of a shedding cycle and have shed about a half a dozen times sinc
