One of the best care guides that I have seen on the net was created by Clay English and can be found at http://www.redtailboas.com/general_care/general_care.html. If most of your questions aren't answered there, there is an excellent book called The Boa Constrictor Manual by Philippe De Vosjoli which pretty much covers everything. Not only can you buy the book on Amazon, but most pet stores carry it.
If these two resources don't help, certainly ask questions here as there are a lot of helpful and knowledgeable people willing to help out.

The Living Boa by Jerry G. Walls aint a bad book either. And another good link is

Hope that helps.
