well i hate to separate them, they are so bonded and love eachothers company. I wish there was snake spay and neutering lol... Wow 6 months huh, well they about that now, and show no interest in eachother that way, only in chasing eachother at feeding time to steal worm pieces when i feed worms. I guess where ever i read that 2 yr thing they way off the mark.. maybe that was a recommended breeding age or something.
