They're from crawl cay. It's a small island off the coast of Panama. According to my book ( my boa bible lol) there's only about 8-10 wild boas on that island so it would make sense that food is scarce and they don't eat often. Im not sure about the amount of rain they get but that's something I'll try to research. I try to keep the humidity around 55-60 and it does pretty will with the cypress mulch I use.
I just use hot water to thaw the frozen mice out and I take them out and offer after the prey reads 100-110. They eat every Thursday. The male took today but I didn't offer the female in hopes that if I wait till next Thursday-which will be 9 weeks!- she'll take it. If she doesn't take it off the tongs next Thursday I'll try leaving it in over night. Thank you everyone for your help!
