Re: how do i get my boa big fast without herting it
i see what you ppl are geting at i hade that thing for 6 months i know what im doing i hade my ball pythons for like a year now in yes im geting a new boa this weekin
Re: how do i get my boa big fast without herting it
Hopefully you'll set up a proper cage for it at least; like the others said, you can't establish the right thermal gradient in that tank. I would get the setup all down pat and your temps spot-on before even thinking of buying!
Re: how do i get my boa big fast without herting it
If you are planning on getting another boa soon. Please make sure it is from a reputable breeder and is healthy. Also, before you get one you should really get a proper setup completed and established before you get the snake. You want the temps stable and the humidity stable before you bring the boa home.
Re: how do i get my boa big fast without herting it
Do your self a favor my man and wait a while to get another snake. Wait a while, research and get the cage set up before you get anything else. Like Gus from Rio Bravo Reptiles says "When you put an animal in a cage you are 100% responsible for it" and bringing another animal home at this point would be a bad idea. Find out how your boa died and correct that husbandry error before trying it again. I don't mean to come off as an ass but if your snake died, there has to be a reason and I don't like to see animals suffer. Bringing in another boa without finding out why the last one died like I already said is a BAD idea!! It could have been something contagious, do you really want to risk exposing another snake to that unknown??? Probably not

For those that think someone needs help...please give it. If you don't believe the person really needs help...then just let it go and move on to the next topic.
I never said anyone was trolling. I was more curious if we werent helpful enough, or we made them feel bad for asking the question so they ended it by saying it had died, or if it had really died...
I guess I need to be a bit more clear in my replies :)
PS And yes, I could have probably just refrained, since I had nothing helpful to add, but I was just curious :(

A freak accident? Not a likely cause for a sudden death. What is the name of the breeder? I am betting there is something you did wrong husbandry wise. Boas arent as forgiving when you make mistakes like balls are. A day or 2 with the temps to low and you could have a boa with a bad respritory infection while a ball would more than likely be fine. Please just take the advice we gave you and wait. Next time you get a snake and it dies people aren't going to be helpful and give advice like this. If you just put it off for a while, you are likely to be better off as well as the snake you get next. I will be glad to give you some tips on getting a cheap yet affective cage set up if it will help you. I want what is best for the animals no matter what. Personal Message me or AIM me at sxscales if you need some help
