Hi, I’m looking for some advice from people with experience on the right size of an enclosure for my female boa constrictor, who is 1 year and 2 months old. I bought an enclosure that’s 4x2x2 feet, and I’m unsure if I should let her have access to the whole thing right away or section it off. I’ve read mixed opinions – some say the enclosure should grow with the snake, while others disagree. She’s very gentle and a bit shy, and I don’t want her to develop any behavioral or feeding issues.

With a good amount of hide zones and cover, so they don’t feel exposed, I think you’ll have one spoiled, happy little boa on your hands. You can cover part of the glass doors while they settle so they feel more comfortable exploring their new area.

I have always been a person that puts my boas in their adult size enclosures. I’ve never had any issues with it. Just make sure that you provide them with enough hides and coverage and they’ll be happy. Boas tend to be pretty bulletproof lol
