Bad cage to keep any boa in, but if you simply MUST keep a boa in it, turn it on its side and use the top as your opening front. And don't use screen.
A boa that is under 3.5 feet could probably live in that "cage". But agai, it wouldn't be ideal for the snake (the most important factor to think about!!).

I would suggest building a cage. I built a very nice 4x2x2 for under 80. Currently my Burm resides in it but when he outgrows it......my female BCI will live in it permantley(unless she exceeds 8ft)

The length of the enclosure has to be @ least half the size of whatever breed snake you are housing.

I thought it wasn't a good idea to house multiple snakes together. As per the post earlier "a few adult corns". Just my 2 cents, others will know for sure.

Yea the best thing is to build there house... just so that you control the size and yes its house should be atleast hafe the size of the snake, also building is very unexpencive  also unexpencive.
