This may seem appear controversial and I've mentioned this previously but I've been told by a few very experienced people not to give Boas hides but provide safe places / areas by strategically placed branches . I've had great success following this advice . My hatchling Dwarf SunGlow boa is a lovely little thing now who started off rather nervous and my 7' Snow Boa is the softest , most placid snake I have . There is a belief that hides whilst being great for many species , Royals being a good example are not always the best idea for Retics , Burms and Boas ...
None of my Boas , the Retic or the Burm have hides per-see . ... they just have branches to hide in or behind if they so wish ...
They are all lovely and placid , thankfully
