    All my adults boas are in ceramic dishes like showed above. Various sizes depending on what size cage they are in. I don't provide a dish large enough for soaking.

    I just use a tub, like a rubbermaid one. Lots of different sizes and pretty easy to find. And if you find the shorter tubs i have noticed that they dont really knock them over to often.

    Re: water bowl

    Yeah man, too much soaking is horrible for a boa. They'll develop scale rot quickly. You don't want them being able to defecate into the bowl and soak in the rotten water. As someone said in you previous thread, when a boa soaks all the time it's usually from stress. I'd go through your husbandry and the boa itself with a fine tooth comb. Something must be off, but maybe it's just the shed...who knows? I have over 100 boas and none of them soak during sheds.
