Richard,

After taking the boas out of brumation I have them on heat tape for about 1-2 weeks which they sometimes sit on. Then I keep them at room temp.

Room temps run about 75-78F during day, 68-72ish at night.

I know I have talked to you about this before, but I find it interesting they will not take mice. They will only take pinky rats and prefer f/t over live big time.

Let me know what you think about the temps.

Thanks,

Chris
