    A few questions

    The next snake i get i would possible want it to be a RTB. But before i commit to getting one I want to make sure I will be able to house it properly.

    I dont know anything about different breeds of RTB. What is the most popular? Which one does best in captivity?

    What size enclosure would a fully grown RTB eventually need?

    and what are the basic supplies I would need to care for one?

    I will probably have more q's later, this is it for now.

    Best answer is to read through this page, BOA FAQ and then any other questions re-post here.

    All do quite well in captivity if you take the time to understand their requirements. . The most common would be the Colombian BCI. As far as enclsoure size, depends on sex and ssps and you. IMO, boas thrive well as adults in 4-6ft enclosures. But when it comes down to it, it depends on how much room you can afford to give the animal as well as how many you plan on keeping.

    .
    Basic supplies....boa, cage, water dish and heat...maybe a hide or two for the young ones.
