this is what they are in now, i built this about a year ago. there is a boa in the top one. i had to house the bps together because of space. it is 24x24x48 made of plywood and sealed. its heated with a radiant heat panel with a reptistat 500 thermostat. im using a indoor/outdoor thermometer from walmart to measure temp. temps are at 83 cool, 90 warm side with 32% humidity. i did have the same issue when they were in a glass tank when they were much smaller.
as far as rodents i have tried it all, live/prekilled mice and small rats (live rat pups or anything real small is hard to find along with clean pet store housing). F/T i have used mice, rat pups, hoppers and small rats. F/T thawed in baggy in water till full thawed then in hot water for about 15 min or till warm to touch. best result is with a prekilled mouse.
