    aside from the caresheets if you are going to get a cage from boaphile just ask jeff what he recommends. he has alot of expierence with boas and would help you out. you are probably going to have to phone him i don't think he answers emails fast.

    How about the ball room rack?The one that says:For Adult Ball Pythons and Boids up to 6 ft.

    How long could I keep a boa in one of those if i feed it regularly and give it right sized food?
