hi i have a big trunk and a 3,5years old female , and today i got another 3,5years female .. and i heard you can have females in same size together without a problem...
so i put them togheter today .. but the strange thing im asking about is that one of them "maked a tramble" and stoped and then tramble again , and then i saw the other maked a little "tramble,shaking" and stoped and so on .. someone seen this before and maybe know what it means?

I think its no problem since they laying sleeping togheter now .. but i will ofc not have them toghter if some of them stopes eating or something..
 
I took the liberty of finding you a few threads about cohabitation.
just because the most extreme problems may not occur, the general view of this board is that cohabiting is bad, and it is very likely they will get stressed.
they may just be sleeping together because that is the best spot, not because they like each other...

your view = ???
 
I think you are wise to seperate. The behavior you observed is the normal movements two strange snakes make when meeting, but it can be followed by more aggressive behaviors and can cause stress. It's safer for both to seperate them and new animals should never be introduced into an existing collection without at least 3 months in quarantine. You've already put them together so hopefully there won't be any health repercussions from it.
