Re: 3 thamnophis!!!
Welcome to the forum.
Are the 3 snakes the snake species?
Are they the same sex?
Are they about the same size?Steve

They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

Welcome to the forum!!! Yes, it would depend on the species and the sex...and the size of the snakes.

Re: 3 thamnophis!!!
Welcome aboard.
Three snakes are fine together depending on: species, size and sex.
What species are you keeping?
You mention your current one is adult, and the new will be 10cm shorter. How long is the current? I'd have thought if you're talking 100cm, and 90cm (or around that) you will be fine.
Unless you want them breeding make sure you keep the same sex snakes together.ChrisT. marcianus, T. e. cuitzeoensis, T. cyrtopsis, T. radix, T. s. infernalis, T. s. tetrataenia

they are 3 thamnophis sirtalis (of the same subspecies maybe sirtalis sirtalis) the bigger one is 65 cm the smaller is 55cm but I have to check better because the other two snakes are not mine yet maybe they are the same lenght.I think they are 2 male and 1 female,but I'm not sure.is better 1 male and 2 female or 2male and 1 female?the tank is 80cm x40cm x40 cm maybe larger.could I post photo of the first snake so you can tell me the species and the sex?thank youuuuuuu!!!
