Im currently building an enclosure that is 6’x5’x2.5’ that will be split into 3 levels with access 2 each of them. would i be able to house multiple ball pythons in it and if so how many? ive heard you can house balls together and my brother recomended puting a small community in it.
i was thinking about 4, would that be ok?
thanks for any input.

You should not house multiple snakes in the same enclosure unless for breeding purposes. You risk transferring infections or diseases to from snake to snake. Others however do house together and have stated they’ve never had any problems. The decision is yours to make. My 2 cents.

i agree that you shouldnt house them together but if you did i wouldnt put more than 2 in a cage that size.

Well I guess those people are right. You CAN house multiple snakes together. It doesn’t mean it’s the best thing to do.

I COULD go out and murder a dozen people tommorrow. But does that make it right?
