the females have their spots hidden so they can't reach them, the males get a new cage (lot bigger) so this is temporary. never burnt themselves by the way.

That's a nice set up but have to agree with that light bulb. I've heard of snakes (mainly ATB's) but I'm sure any could do it, get pissed off and striking at their heat source they would be sorry, possibly electricution,cutting themselves on glass, and burning in the best case scenario.

Thanx for the compliments!

I build the cage 3 years ago when they were little:



Light bulbs above and a heating mat beneath the left corner, swimming pool at the right en lot's of climbing posibility's.

At the time I had 3 female's. At this time I have 5 female's that need to my opinion more space. Knowing it's better to house them seperate but didn't build the cage for one snake at the time.

A more recent picture of the cage (with two more females and also all grown bigger)



And last a funny picture:

I really like that one setup. I counted 4 boas in one enclosure though, are they always in there together? And do you feed them all in there together? I also agree it would be a good idea to cover up the lights!

At first I fed them in their cage, one above, one in the middle and one at the ground. The last two year I feed them in little plastic cages (during feeding one snake in the cage ofcourse):

Great looking boas and OUTSTANDING cages! I love that angled one.. I assume it's under a stairwell?
