I'd like some input on enrichment ideas/options as well.

I try to keep my captive's lives somewhat interesting... they are handled often, get to cruise around the back yard on a regular basis, I even have a small plastic pool that they get to swim in from time to time (the pool is actually interesting, most of my kings/milks/corns swim right out but sometimes they stay in and the boas stay in often swimming around under the surface as if they are exploring), sometimes i'll wiggle the dead mouse around and really make them "kill" it, and I have most cages set up with a cage within a cage design... a smaller tub in a large tub/tank/cage that acts as 2 hides, a moist area, and something to climb on.

I'd really like more ideas on how to provide an even slightly more interesting life for my charges though.
