Thumbs up Retics?

Can two full grown retics live together reguardless of sex? If so can they both live in an 8'x4'x2', or would they need like a 10'x4'x2'?

Ok thanks, I figured they would have to have more space considering they are one of if not the largest snakes in the world. I think I will just get one and put it in an 8'x4'x2' when it is about 6 feet. Would that be ok or would she need to be bigger before transfering?

You should not house 2 Retics together regardless of sex. Males will be combative, and the presence of another snake often causes stress. These are not social creatures.
