Ball Python Housing

[GootySapphire]

I know this is a pretty basic question but here goes.. I have a regular male ball python, a somewhat pastel female ball python, and a male 100% het for albino ball python. I have the regular male and the pastel female housed together, could I put the 100% het for albino in with them? Or would there be issues?

Read my thread on snake questions and you'll find out. Apparently this is a hot topic, I was unaware of that fact. I do think though that it is bad to house different kinds of snakes together if there is a size difference. I'm not an expert, and I have only owned a snake for 4 days. Personally, I wouldn't do it.

Ball Pythons are known to be cannibalistic, so I wouldn't do it. Another reason not to is that if one of your snakes gets a respiratory infection, all 3 will have it. 3 snakes to the vet=3 times the cost. You will be much better off housing them in 3 separate containers.

All of this. Also, don't forget the high chances of someone getting stressed and going off feeding entirely!
