Something I do for my boas is make all in one units that are built out of melamine. I like the look and they are extremely sturdy and if the seams are sealed will not have any issues from moisture.(bci are the main animals I keep)



Here is one unit that is 2 enclosures in one (I do not have the plastic along the back covering the peg board yet, or the heat tape installed in it yet)







This basic set up is the absolute easiest enclosure to build.

Here is a pic of it with the glass in it and a 4 1/2' boa in it to show it off a little more (the light shrouds have not been installed in this yet either)





Some people will tell you litter dams are needed, but I prefer not having them in the enclosure (the glass track is high enough to prevent fluid to pour out the front, and if a boa is going to lean on the glass to use the restroom they will do it regardless if there is a 2" litterdam or if the track is attached to the floor.
