.... given some good advice. I'll add this.. the NO-1 thing I did to improve the health and breeding success of my Boa was too open up the collection, put them in larger caging with lots of light and room and ventilation. This allowed me to observe them more closely and provide the individual care that Boa thrive on..

That being said.. I did once have a large Boa give birth in a pillow-case... everything went perfectly. But once an WC Hog Is. boa delivered in a solid hide-box and killed several of the babies (apparently) by crushing them against the sides..

What this all adds up to is.. the Boas will make do when they need to, but don't push it.. get them into roomy caging with the proper temps and ventilation as soon as you can.
