She seems happy. The last two days she is really starting to move around alot. Flickers her tongue all the time. She has a 20 gallon long tank right now. One side has a medium sized heat pad and the other side has a lamp (on during the day). I cover top of the cage with a towel to contain the heat (half during the day, then entire top at night). The air temp at the top of the tank on the heat pad side fluctuates between 75 and 85. She has a hide box on the pad side and on the (cooler)other side. I am looking for a nice climbing branch for her but havent had much luck so far. Humidity ranges around 30-40, some places I have read this is OK for boas as long as they dont have shedding problems. I still want to raise it a little bit but am having difficulty. Does this all sound reasonable?



Thank you very much for the feeding recommendations, I guess I underestimate what she should be able to ingest. Its hard to watch that jaw separate. I have a handfull of huge fuzzy mice right now, one or two will still be good for next week.



Take Care,

Shell
