Can you keep multiple ball pythons in the same cage?

I recently posted a question regarding a ball of mine that wouldn't eat, and then had someone jump down my throat because I have 7 baby ball pythons living together. It's fine if they can't live together, I can make other arrangements, but please don't yell at me for not knowing that in the first place. We have 7 baby snakes, all born within 3 months of each other. There's 4 boys and 3 girls. They live in a cage that's probably about 100 gallons. There's plenty of climbing space, and at least 6 hiding homes, if not more. Temperature is at the proper level, along with humidity. The bedding is cleaned all the time along with fresh water. They have really good living conditions, but I'd like to know that even if that's true, if having so many of them together is bad. And when they grown up will the boys be able to live together, and the girls able to live together? Also we only give them filtered water, never just tap water. I really can't imagine that being harmful in any way, but I'd like a good opinion on that too.
