No offense, but I dont think the anole idea would work. They are all around my yard. I have attempted to breed them in captivity. They are easy to keep, and easy to breed. When given good conditions, the eggs will even hatch inside the tank without ever being incubated. The babies, however, rarely eat, are easily dehydrated, and basically impossible to keep alive. This is only my experience with green and brown anoles though.
Your oppertunity does sound like a good and hard to come by oppertunity. 30% doesn't sound too bad to me considering that you pay no rent and get free electricity. I would start with very few animals and see how things work out. Boas sound like a bad idea. You don't want to end up feeding a 6-9 ft snake that never gets sold. My biggest worry would be a possible misunderstanding resulting in a law suit.
