  1. Depends what size they are. For baby boas, that would be more than enough. The length of the enclosure should be at least two thirds of their size. For example, the smallest enclosure that a 6 foot snake should be kept in is 4 foot long.


  2. NO NO NO boas should not be kept together for starters as they can be cannibalistic, also a Viv that size isn't even large anuf for 1 full size boa.

  3. NO! You should keep them in separate enclosures that measure .75x the length of the snake wide and .50x the length deep. So a 10 foot female would need a cage 7.5ftLx5ftD. Height should be around 2 foot.

  4. Don't keep them together or you're liable to come home to one very fat boa. Not to mention how badly it can stress them out.

  5. Boas should not live in pairs.  They should only be kept together to breed and should otherwise be kept separately at all times.  Most boas need a 6 x 2 x 2 enclosure as adults, and a large female columbian red tail might even need larger still.  If it's a smaller red tail, each one could live in a 4 x 2 x 2.  But not together.
