thanks becky... that makes me feel much better. do you think i should move them into another room or is it your opinion that they should stay where they are (same room as the ball)

If you're comfortable with them in the room they are already in, I'd keep them there. If they were carrying anything, you would have already experienced some problems either with them or the Balls.

If it makes you more comfortable, handle the boas last and use a separate pair of hemostats/tongs :) I only have one set of 12" hemos, so they get used for Sonja. The balls eat live so I don't mess with them. I also use a pair of 12" tweezers for cricket-holding(when feeding geckos), or other small tasks.

Glad you're more reassured! :)

okay, we'll (my hubby and i) will discuss this further and decide where to keep the boas. i think we are going to move them into the living room... just for peace of mind. ;)

and definitely get them their own tongs and poop spoon ;)

it is very nice to know that... since we've had the boas for awhile now, that we are probably safe... ;) we defintely won't be adding any more boas into our collection though.

I'm hoping to add at least one more boa some day when Sonja has her first babies. Hoping one of her daughters will someday come back north to us. :)

IMO, if you're planning on aquiring any more Boas, it might be worth it to go ahead and set up an area for them in another room, so when you get another you won't be at a loss at where to keep it.

Definitely Jo! You may get a hypo baby(just for rescuing my big sweet girl from those TWITS) if I can find a nice, clean boy at NARBC! ;)
