As far as the caging questions .... There is a caging forum on this site that has lots of helpful tips.

Keeping boas together isn't advised. I've done it in the past with no problems. You must not feed them together. If they even smell like rodent from feeding, they can get bitten, and so can you when trying to clean them. I haven't heard of Boas dispaying dominant behavior, but I've seen a couple posts on here of one Boa eating another of the same size. I believe both ended up dying. Davey Fig has pics of that I believe. Anytime you get a new snake of any kind, it should be quarantined in a separate area for a minimum of 3 months or more. When I go into my quarantined room, I always take a shower before going to my snake room period.
