hides are deffinately good .. as for making it look better i always turn to what vivarium people do and glue things such as cork bark to the back so you are not just looking through to the other side .. since it is a young boa just fill it up with things .. you may not see the boa as much but it will make him feel safer with more places to hide as well as look a little less boring and be a bit more difficult to clean.

snakes require hides to feel safe. the problem is that it should not be as much of a concern for you to see the snake as it is for the snake to feel safe. a snake that is not able to hide is likely to get stressed out and have problems in other areas such as feeding and health. the snake will get comfortable with its surroundings after a while and will not stay in the hides all the time. i highly recomend hides.

Put in more branches . Your boa will use them and you might as well make use of the top area of the cage.
