2. Yes. I use aspen for all my snakes and it works fine. just be sure you get the shredded stuff and not the chipped or shaved stuff like for rodents. The shredded packs down better. I personally buy the 7 cu ft bails of American Excelsior aspen.
3. Yes. It is your choice between flexwatt or RHPs. I use both. RHPs are good if your room temps get kind of cold in the winter. Flexwatt is good if your room temps stay 75F+.
4. That's a loaded question as there are lots of good breeders out there. If you are looking for locality stuff, I would recommend Legacy reptiles or Cutting Edge Herps. For morph BIs, there are tons. Check out FaunaClassifieds.com and Kingsnake.com as well as join The FB group Boa Constrictor Keepers.
5. For a male, you can keep him on rats or small rabbits if you want. My big girl is 6-7' right now and she eats large rats and small rabbits. I just vary it up.

Oh also forgot, no matter what heat source you use, you MUST get a quality t-stat to run it. Don't guess on temps. I recommend Herpstats but a lot of people also like Vivarium Electronics. In a pinch you can also use Jump Start ones. I have 4 Herpstats and 3 Jump Starts for back ups.
So I CAN use a jump start for a rhb I already have one t8 set up with a 80 watt rhb hooked into a ve-200 and that's what ima gunna set my next cage up with too but just for like pinches I can use the jump start t-stat?
