Great set up, it's like a mini jungle. Nice looking boa too.

Nice girl you have there. What size tank is that?


Cheers,
Kat

34q, its a little big but she doesnt seem to mind all that much

Awesome looking set-up!!!

I love the third picture :D

Nice little snake! They don't mind the space like balls do :)

hey starmom, what kind of cages do you use for your boas? we were looking at RBI cages, but it seems like the biggest that they have is a 2x4...

Definitely nice digs, and what a pretty boa.

Lol!! You had to bring this up now!!!

Honestly, I have been going around and around and around on this issue. I was going to get the AP A30 (L4xW2xH6). I have been talking with Ali about it and trying to work with them for *months* and *months*, but they must be really busy there because waiting for reply's and action has been ridiculous.

*But*- I love the cage!!!

I saw Brandon's cage again that he made and was reminded (again) of how gorgeous his cage is and how I could make gorgeous cages for my females~ a lot nicer on the eye than plastic!!

Well, long story short, I have now committed to making the cages based on the A30 design :D I'll be going to Lowe's and Home Depot for the various supplies. I'm not good enough with tools to do proper doors (like Brandon can) but I can router out a space and put the Lexan into it. I'll use some sort of nifty veneered or oak plywood with about 4 coats of spar varnish. I'll also use two RBI 80watt RHP's since there is a lot of vertical space to heat. I'll be putting in two shelves and a climbing tree.

Actually, I worked up the plans today and am really excited. Guess the creative juices are flowing since we also worked up the house plans for the ranch in a way that we all love and is also do-able!!!!

Oh happy day!!! :banana:

wowzers thats a big cage! i didnt think boa's needed a cage that large:O

I have been told that males do well in a 4 foot cage; I have females :D

we have a female as well and she has all ready earned a nick name..ziva the diva..I see Bo making a custom cage in the future
