Hey everyone, here is the situation. A customer came in today to purchase frozen large rats. She asked me if we take animals? Anyone that knows me....

i asked what what she wanted to give up. A red tail boa!

She he explained that her mom is starting to experience dementia and can no longer care for it. He is a young boa. I said I would take him since I do have contacts and will be able to find him a home.

My questions are:

1.will a 40 breeder be ok for him?
2. Im going to use paper towels to start since I want him quarantined to make sure no mites. Is this ok?
3. What kind of hide or other stuff needs to be in the tank. Obviously he will have a water dish.
4. Any other tips you can give me.

She said her mom had a ret tail for years so he was very well taken care of. Had a huge tank from the last snake. Eats well when fed. (Again dementia and forgetting to feed).

This was not a big box store purchased snake. She knew how to,take care of it before her dementia started.

thanks everyone!
