but im back with some dumeril boa Q's for those who've got years experience with them.
I'm getting a dumeril's boa this coming weekend with her current setup & was wondering what their shedding process is & if its similar to ball pythons. I own a ball python so im familiar with her shed cycles & the stages but i was wanting the same info for Dums.
I've searched all over the internet for more Dumerils info but am not having much luck.
As for the current set up,
From what i've seen in the picture the boa is currently housed in a big tank with a screen lid & theres a single large water dish...& that's it.
There's a heatpad (unknown on a thermostat as i keep forgetting to ask the owner if he has it on a t-stat) & i believe a light as well. Not sure if i'll continue using that with the set up but we'll see.
Her owner says she burrows in the substrate so there really isnt a need for hides (i'll probably supply a couple homemade dollar store bowl hides anyways).
I'll cover 3 sides of the boa's tank & get an accurite digital hygrometer.
I already have the temp gun & bedding that i use with my BP so thats covered but the boa's set up will also include left over bedding as well.
