Boa Enclosure Pics and Inspiration

I do not currently have a boa, but I wish to get one in 2022, and I’m planning ahead for the enclosure, so I’d love to see y’all’s enclosure for inspiration!

If you can tell I love foliage. I use blossom for fake plants.

Here is my response to when people say boas don’t like to climb when they get bigger

I am currently second guessing my choice on buying a hognose in a few days. This makes me want a boa so bad.

Lol, don’t get the hog and get the boa, you won’t regret it. Trust me I’m an unbiased source.

All we have right now is a simple 40 breeder with coconut husk. Im getting some 6’ PVC enclosures in the near future from the breeder when he gets a few new ones in. I really enjoy viewing our snakes as they are pretty active but long term, glass is hard to maintain humidity.

I see you also got bamboo in your enclosure. Boas no matter the size love to climb even if it is only a few inches off the ground.

She loves that piece of driftwood, I always get a kick seeing her climb around on it. It shows her muscle tone.

I love seeing Kai use his too. Also boas are pretty active lol. I find that mine love to explore their enclosures. They are very confident.

I agree, boas are always semi arboreal. When I get my boa next year I’m gonna start with a juvenile, but one it’s adult size, I’m gonna house it in a 5’ x 3’ x 3’ enclosure and I’m for sure getting some good logs for it to climb on.

Here is an old picture of a cage I made a long time ago. I gave it to my Veterinarian for his snakes a few years ago.

Well that didn’t work as planned. Here is bad picture of the same cage. Now I keep all my boas in rack systems.

He is a she. Unfortunately she died with over 50 babies in her many years ago. I have had two boas over 50 lbs die with babies in them. This is why I don’t breed really big boas any more. I like them in the 20 to 30 lbs for breeding.

Lumpy you should post a link to the post about the living room cage pictures. Now those are some nice setups.
