The rosy boa (Lichanura trivirgata), however not as mainstream as the corn snake or the California kingsnake, is as yet a famous pet snake in the side interest. Genuinely quiet, the blushing boa doesn't get excessively huge, developing to around 4 feet long when completely developed, however normal sizes are 2 to 3 feet long. The blushing boa can be bought for around $30-40 as hatchlings at reptile shows, reptile stores, and on the Web. They are not ordinarily found in the huge box retail pet stores, where you can promptly discover corn snakes and ball pythons. The blushing boa is an extensive snake, fit for living 25+ years or more. My closest companion growing up had a ruddy boa that lived 16 years.
Like ball pythons and corn snakes, blushing boas come an assortment of hues.
The ruddy boa fenced in area, similarly as with all snake walled in areas, ought to be get away from verification. Additionally, in light of the fact that blushing boas are regularly searching for a departure highway, a screened top isn't suggested, as they can rub their noses. A 20-gallon walled in area is perfect for grown-up ruddy boas while hatchlings can be begun in little shoeboxes or other comparatively estimated nook. For substrate, you can utilize paper, paper towels or aspen bedding. Around two creeps of substrate will empower your ruddy boa to tunnel. You can spot clean the walled in area as you go over wet spots and snake crap, and change out the substrate each other month or something like that. Likewise with different snakes on the rundown, unique lighting isn't essential, however a warmth source is. The best warmth source is and under tank heat cushion or tape on one side of the walled in area so the snake can thermoregulate. This likewise helps in absorption. Feed your blushing boa a properly measured solidified defrosted mouse two to four times each month throughout the spring and less throughout the winter.
