Boa Constrictor

Boa constrictors are powerful, docile snakes that make rewarding pets for experienced keepers. These non-venomous constrictors typically reach 4–8 feet in length and can live 20–30 years with proper care. They require a spacious enclosure (40-gallon breeder tank minimum for adults), consistent temperatures between 75–85°F, and humidity around 60–70%. Feed frozen-thawed prey to prevent injury. Provide hiding spots, climbing branches, and secure substrate. Handle gently and infrequently to maintain temperament. Regular veterinary check-ups ensure long-term health and vitality.
