i have been reading through some of the past posts on the forum and came across one that said when two snakes are coiled up together that their competing? i took this to mean its a bad thing? i presumed that because they coiled up together and sometimes sleeping like this that they liked each other and got on fine? i havent seen anything to suggest otherwise......

They don't have the emotion to 'like' each other.

They would most likely either:

Both want the same spot,
Want to mate or
Are using each other as something to hide under.

It's really best not to co-habit snakes, take a look at the sticky at the top of this section for more info. There is a real risk of two snakes turning into one big fat one, which will then likely regurge or die or both.
