Re: getting a rainbow boa, little advice?

Can he/she be kept in a Tub all their life like Ball Pythons? Yes, I am planning to make a rack designed for the 65 or 74 quart under bed tubs for mine eventually.
What should the tub Temp be? Hot/Cold/Humidity? Low mid-70's, high no more than 85-86, higher than 88 can be lethal. Humidity around 70% for adults, 80% for juveniles, 90% for hatchlings. Because of the required humidity I wouldn't attempt to use a tank as an enclosure for it.
An Adult, what should the appropriate meal be? Small or medium rats no larger around than the snake's girth. Mine take f/t and as with all boas do not overfeed them.
Sorry on my phone, typing fast, sorry not giving much detail's in questions.
Any advice will be great.
I love my three and they are awesome snakes. While the adults are fine with being handled, babies can be nippy until they figure out that you're not going to hurt them.
