Thanks for all the info guys! That's odd that some seem to have success with warmer temps and some with lower. In my case, I have the thermostat set to 90 degrees for the hot spot because my herp room is a little chilly in the winter months (60-65 degrees usually). However, when I first introduced them in late September I had the thermostat set at 85 degrees for a hot spot when the outside temps were milder. One thing that has been mentioned that I have not tried is the misting. I figure it can't hurt to give that a shot when I reintroduce the male again.



Billy, both my boas are around the 7' mark with the female being the slightly longer and much heavier of the two. The male is roughly 4 years old and the female is slightly over 2 and a half years (I know some may say this may be too young but she is a robust healthy boa that has never been powerfed).
