Oi oi oi... Chillex :wavey:
Okay,
Look... I know a few Boa keepers from here and there... no, co-habbing is usually discouraged.
You know, it's all about you know, so a part of our opinion is based upon your well of experience...
I can tell you that Boa keepers tend to keep them separately- it also becomes more effective come breeding time, since the males can end up being desensitized to the female’s hormones.
Gestation in Boas is a big deal. It takes tons more energy out of the animal than it does for Colubrids… you know what? I’m a happy camper if the gestation ends with the female being in reasonable shape… things can take a turn for the worse in the hands of inexperienced keepers.
If you want to seriously keep these animals, try taking examples from the most successful breeders you know… I’m quite sure you’ll see that co-habbing is not something commonly practiced there.
With dangers such as Crypto, IBD, and God knows what else, it’s just not worth the risk… it seriously isn’t.
2 meters, hence, 6 feet… and 3.8 kilograms? Really? Mind posting pictures?
I have never seen an adult Boa with such a weight->size ratio… I had a female… 5.8 feet or so, she was around 8 kilogram.
Maybe if there's some specific locality involved but... pics would help, in short.
That rack comment is bollocks, I’m sorry. I use them and I find them extremely convenient… why? Well… I can easily take the tub out and clean them- sterility is a big issue, and cleaning tubs properly is a deal easier than a whole viv(and God knows they love to poop in corners).
Some of my Boas do a deal better in those drawers… they feel more secure(especially as the tubs are milky, and not 100% clear).
So no need for arguing… just consider the fact that in the wild, snakes in general, and Boas in particular, lead solitary life. It is generally a bad idea to put them in the same enclosure… compared to the distance they keep away from each other naturally, your viv is tiny
