Boa acting weird

Looks fine to me. And like BCR said, it is much easier to trick a boa into its cage if you position the doorway just above their head. They think they are going up higher and dont realize you have tricked them until about halfway in, then they might try and double back. You just have to be fast and shove their rear half in and close the door before they get back out or squeeze your arm with their butt lol.

The tank I have opens on the top with a sliding screen lid so it’s really difficult lol. My AP T10 is coming in a month so I won’t have this issue much longer. [emoji16]

Give them a hide. Even the adults. Position the opening to the hide so that it's just a few inches from where the boa's head enters the enclosure. The boa usually climbs in, spots the hide, and makes a beeline straight for it.

True but mine seem to have learned that open door>hide. They usually will stick their head in and then double back to try and come back out haha. The babies, it works well with though.
