Don't get it just because it seems cheap, although mine only cost me £40.

How is your male corn doing, he had issues too? Don't forget your Boa will need a big viv later too.

Both will be on rats too which are more expensive than mice.

There is a lot to consider. Make sure you do what's best for the snakes you already own.
yh im in the process of looking at 6ft x 2ft vivs for the boa so no panic there (of course with a bulb heater) and the corn is doing so much better although im still only feeding him once every 3 weeks which he seems to be fine with.

Using a bulb as a heater is like asking for humidity problems, go with uth/flexwat
