    That doesn't sound like Clay, why don't you go to his forum and start a thread claiming your boa?

    As for which Boa?

    I would go with whichever one you feel comfortable with and like overall.

    Hogs are great and stay between 5-6ft, BRB's stay under 6ft as well and aren't as heavy bodied, Dumerils stay within 6-7ft on average, Nicaraguans stay between 3-4ft. All of these are managable boas, also males tend to be smaller than females in most of these.

    Just want to point out that feeding, temperature and individuals themselves also play a role in how large they get and how fast they get there.


    Good luck in whatever choice you make.

    How big should the enclosures be for each sp. I listed when they are fully grown?

    BCI - 6' long cage (smaller male central american or nicaraguan may be ok in a 4')

    BCC 6' long

    hog island - 4' cage if it's a smaller one. Some will still require 6'.

    dumerils - 6' cage.. some males may be fine in a 4'

    Again, all depends on feeding and individual snake.

    4X2 cages will do fine, but some may need a 6ft'er.
