    I think I own a hermit crab...not a boa.

    Add my two (BCI and BCC) to the hiding like BP's list. Hiding all day and out at night. I have wondered in the past what I was doing wrong. Glad to here I am not the only one with shy boas.

    Re: hides

    We offer one hide for each of the younger boas (a male 05 and a female 07) which are located on the warm side of their enclosures. Both seem to use them. For the 07 she has a large and sturdy thick black rubber dog dish I got at a feed/farm supply store. For the 05 he has a large black bowl I got one year at halloween (was I assume meant to hold large amounts of candy to give out) - makes a great snake hide though. The biggest one, the 16 year old female boa doesn't require a hide as parts of her very large enclosure are not easy seen so she can melt away back there when she wants her quiet time.
