    what do ya think

    Once i get the finances im thinking about making a whole room into a giant BP habitat. I want multiple BPs in there and it is going to be giant. There will be trees and vines, a large heat lamp and humidifier(not the kind you use when your sick), but it will be awesome so what do you guys think. It will take a few years but wish me luck!

    I think bp are solitary creatures, you will have massive issues with cleaning, and that if you're not careful the humidity necessary for good BP husbandry, particularly during shed, will destroy your house.

    yeah you would basically have to bring a piece of tropical Africa indoors. if you live in a comparable climate it COULD be possible, but ease of access to each snake and sanitary environment would be my red flags. bound to lose a snake or two in a free range situation.
