Quick question on rosys

[GeckoStud]

Is it possible to house female rosy boas together, or at least house young ones together? I would like to know because if you can I would like to do that up at school to save room. If not I won't do it, but I figured I'd ask here because I'm not finding much on google.

Personally I wouldn't. Even though Rosies aren't known for Cannabalism you always take the Risk, other problems can occur such as Cross Contamination, Hierarchy(Which generally effects how well they feed), etc.

Cross contamination? As in illness? Either way, I think I'm going to look into a small rack system at hamburg and see if I can afford one of those for my snakes so I can keep them separately.

Long term, that's the best way to go!

I know a couple of breeders and everyone says that its not a problem as long as they are roughly the same size, have been quarantined long enough to know that neither carries parasites, and feed them separately. There can be the occassional aggression but its not the norm.
