If you truly do have a 10' boa (which I've only ever seen one of, and I would love to see pictures if you do have one), you'll need at least a 6' x 2' cage.

good cheap effective way to get a good boa cage is make it out of plywood. heres a quick and easy on how to make a REALLY cheap, not too pretty cage.

get 2 sheets of plywood (8x4) and cut them length wise (8x2).

get 5 8' 2x2 or jsut anything that you can strenghten the corners with. i like to make doors, but you can do sliding glass very easily. glass is a little $ though. with doors you can make it smaller than sliders, makign it possible to use up smaller bits of glass which you may be able to get for cheaper.

big boas can probably bust through sliding doors.

anyway plywood cages are nice cause there isnt really much work to put them together (saw and drill and your set). slap some paint on it to seal it up and it doesnt look so bad. lots can be done to make it look pretty as well.
