It really depends on your plans for her. If she is going to be your only boa, and you want a nice display cage, then go all out and make/buy her a big cage. However, many breeders keep their females in cages that are 4'L x 2'D x 1'H (this is the minimum I would suggest). If she is a very thick girl, you could get a 6' cage. Adult boas are terrestrial, and added height is not really necessary. For display purposes, you may want a taller cage. If you plan on having quite a few boas, space becomes a premium. That's the reason most breeders use 1' tall cages. Hit the cage classifieds and look around. You'll find something.
