You are going to need the cage, heat, a digital thermostat, a thermometer / hygrometer, big water dish, and substrate. That should keep your Hogg happy and healthy.

thanks! and do you think i could keep a juvie/subadult in a 4x2x15 even with a ton of hides and plants and stuff?

My hogs aren't nearly as shy as my bps. That enclosure should be fine for a sub-adult as long you have several hides--with at least one the warm and one on the cool end.

Agreed. BTW, I do not use any hides for my sub-adult and adult boas. I just put something over the plexiglass on the hot side of the cage to make it a little darker on that side.

Can't wait till mine get like that. My male still likes his hides during the day. He comes out at night to hang out on the wood in his enclosure. I'm hoping he will stop using the hide in the day also. Love it when he's out.
My female is only one year old and still sticks pretty close to her hides. Though not like my bps!
