Too big for hides???
Hey guys/girls!!! I'm new to the forum nice to meet everyone, I'm not new to reptile keeping but I'm kinda in a pinch. I can't find a hide big enough for my adult 5'-5'1/2 foot dumerils boa. I don't know how to upload pictures but he's a 4'x2' AP cage soon to be a 5'-6'. cage.. any suggestions.

Jumbo reptile basics hide might work? My 9' retic fits in one. Much slimmer than a dumerils thot

I have this for my BCI for when she is full grown.
It's supposed to be big enough, and looks like it will be, but she's not 7FT yet!
It has the measurements on the reptile basics site, so you can do some figuring.
Welcome to the forum and good luck!

I use restaurant bus tubs as hides for my adult boas (BI's and Dum's). You just need the tools to cut an access hole.

I made this hide in the photo for my 21 months old BCI who is also 5 foot+ as your adult Dumeril,s boa. I just bought wood pieces and joined them together with nails and painted it. The hide size is 19 inches long, 21,5 inches wide, 16,5 high. I have choosen the size and type of the wood

Thank you so much everyone I will check out all your recommendations!!! I looked on reptile basics but I honestly didn't know how it would fit since I can't see it in person lol.

Go to Walmart, and get a litter box. Cut a door in it (carefully) with a scissors. They make all sorts of different sizes so you can find something that works. Ive done it numerous times before.
Make sure to cut off any sharp corners though.
