great thank you I will definitely try that and also does it matter if I have a couple chords going in there like that? it's not going to bother the snake at all.

They don't seem to mind, mine just climb through them sometimes.

Re: Many questions about dumerils boa

One last thing here. How often should I change the substrate? I use jungle mix and I make about an inch and a half thick. Along with the zoomed terrarium moss is that something that's needs to be changed regularly

Spot check daily, and replace it all every quarter or if it fails the "smell test" for urine. (Same with moss.)
