I just made a cage for my boa but it doesn't have much light. I can see him in their but it is pretty dark. How much light do boas need?

They don't "need" any special lighting, just a photoperiod. If the room has a window they'll be able to tell the dif between night and day.

LOL, to many snakes to list, last count:
26.49 BRB
20.21 BCI
And those are only the breeders 
lots.lots.lots feeder mice and rats 


His cage only has a small window and only lets in a little bit of light, is that fine?

I just use facility lights the cages don't have individual lighting.
