Re: No idea what boa constrictor this is. Help pls?

Looking at her in her water bowl i highly doubt shes gravid. A gravid boa would be in hcp on the heat and her body temp has to stay above 87-88 for the babies to make it. My 2 yr old boas average 3 ft lol there is zero way to tell age by size bc it literally depends on feeding regimen. Bcis very rarely grow past 7 ft

Thanks. That's a relief. Didn't feel like buying/making a 6 x 3 x 2. She's in blue so I've packed a hide on the warm side with misted sphag moss. Hygrometer is about 70%. Acceptable?

Though she has yet to leave her water tray. I've covered it with some extra silk plants to give her cover. I have her in an enormous rubbermaid tub. Her water dish is actually a sweater tub, and her hide is another sweater tub with a hole cut in the top and moss wrapped around the hole.

Basically same husbandry for my BPs in blue but in a larger scale.
