Not understandin....???

Curious about this as well....


You have a humdifier to keep the room very humid

You have a humid hide in the enclosures as the only hide

You mist daily


How wet do you have their enclosures?? Boas really only need 60% humidity. Keeping it too wet can have results like an RI, increased bacteria, mold and mildew, not to mention a pissy boa.

i only mist when they are in shed mode daily (should have been specific). but i do miss daily with the brazilian rainbow boa because it needs the humidity.

and even when i mist their enclosures i wait until they get bone dry, i dont mist them like every hour. it would be every four -6hrs if even then because the water dish keeps it humid.

And there isnt anything in their enclosures what would cause mild dew to grow or mold because i use paper towels with the BCIs.

Sounds good then. Just make sure to only leave the humid hide in while they are blue, because it isn't sanitary to leave in otherwise. I would just use a couple of plain hides with them, (although my RTB never uses his).

Have you thought about using cypress mulch at all? Mildew, mold resistant, and it holds humidity very well.
