Rv Storing and chassis battery

Still learning from the forum and all my mistakes. Left my motorhome in storage and unused for about 8 months. Ever time I go by to check on the unit the battery is dead and I have to use my trucks battery cables to start the motorhome engine. Should I be disconnecting one of the engines cables to prevent the house batteries from draining the driveway Nguni battery?

Meant to say prevent draining the engine battery

I put disconnects on both the house battery (only one in ours) and the chassis battery.

Haven't had an issue with either draining since.
