Video of my new rainbow boa

I NAMED HIM GULLAH GULLAH, HE'S MORE DIFFICULT THAN THE BALLS & CORNS I'M USE TO BUT I CAN HANDLE IT

**video removed**

damn thats a good looking rainbow.
How much he cost you?
looking forward to seeing your tank after its all setup.

Congrats! Thanks for the video. I am curious, how is he more difficult than a ball or a corn?

Reason: Video contained inappropriate language.



well i found the video searching on youtube. Nice looking BRB its light.

youtube user name yungking216.

LOL MY VID WAS REMOVED BECAUSE OF MY NAUGHTY LANGUAGE. BUT THE RAINBOWS ARE MORE DIFFICULT BECAUSE THEY REQUIRE MUCH MORE HUMIDITY THAN BALL PYTHONS & CORN SNAKES. BUT ITS NOT THAT HARD TO KEEP IT UP. WITH THE RIGHT SUBSTRATE, DAMP TOWELS. MY HUMIDITY IS ALWAYS IN THE 80's. HERE'S A PIC

lol yeah... they dont tolerate language... or insults... besides that you should be good :gj:

lol. cool little guy. I figured it would be a bit easier to keep up the humidity in your terrarium since its like completely sealed... Do you use mosses and stuff for the substrate?

yes i use cypress mulch with moss throughout the cage. I have a special humidity hide box filled with damp moss that he's suppose to spend time in but he never goes in it at all lol

My guess is the humidity alone... might be some young aggression too...

ok. lol... yeah figures, they like to make it difficult. You should try getting a shallow water dish and put a hide over it. I saw a guy on youtube did that and his BRB used it.

yes i plan on getting a hide to put over the water dish. I saw that. He is a little nippy whenever i reach in to take him out the tank but once i pick him up he's perfect. Very calm

Nice... haha yeah... He should tame down a bit once he gets used to handling, and gets bigger. Nice snake tho.... I want a BRB :oops: (and some other stuff) i cant get anything at the moment though... :(

God I really want one of these...any advice on easy to sanitize perches?


Also whats the best way to maintain there temps...Ummm 85 basking 75 ambient right?


One last question, do they feed f/t well?

i use jungle vine for now, i just use a zoo-med uth, & infared heat bulb, the substrate, misting & damp towels hold the humidity. the guy at the reptile gave me a free mouse with the snake so i only fed him live. i'll try f/t this weekend & see if he takes it. the breeder has been feeding live :snake:

Oooh I see, I never honestly used a heat lamp before. It's hard to fit one on a neodesha cage. I'd need to get something with a flexible neck. Or maybe 2 uth.
