Burrowable and well known for holding humidity well, but can only be ordered in bulk.
BOA CONSTRICTOR LARGE PLUS
Plus it’s much more eco-friendly than peat. It’s extremely absorbent, fluffy, holds moisture well, and cheap. Coconut fiber: This substrate goes by many names, including Eco Earth and Plantation Soil.Join the Reptile & Amphibian Bioactive Setups group on Facebook for more information. Bioactive substrates, if properly maintained, can go years without need for replacement. Bioactive substrate is naturalistic substrate taken to the next level by adding detritivore insects (aka “clean-up crew”) which help break down waste and control bacteria and fungi. Fairly expensive compared to the first option, but it lasts a long time and is well worth the investment. It also holds burrows and tunnels well and does not require a drainage layer.
Terra Firma by The BioDude : Terra Firma is a bioactive-ready soil mix that tolerates higher temperatures and holds humidity well.One batch made with one bag of each fills a 4×2 base quite nicely. DIY mix (40% plain topsoil + 40% Zoo Med ReptiSoil + 20% play sand): This is arguably the best substrate option for boas because it is composed of natural materials least likely to contribute to impaction, smells nice, holds humidity well, drains beautifully, and is very cheap.The boa first strikes at the prey, grabbing it with its teeth it then proceeds to constrict the prey until death before consuming it whole. However, they do hunt, particularly in regions with a low concentration of suitable prey, and hunting generally occurs at night. Boa constrictors are ambush predators, so often lie in wait for an appropriate prey to come along, when they attack. It makes their eyes appear milky, blue, or opaque so that the snake cannot see very well, causing it to be more defensive than it might be otherwise.
BOA CONSTRICTOR LARGE SKIN
Like all snakes, Boa constrictors in a shed cycle are more unpredictable, because of the substance that lubricates between the old skin and the new one. Their bite can be painful, especially from large snakes, but is rarely dangerous to humans. These snakes strike when they perceive a threat. Boa constrictors often occupy the burrows of medium-sized mammals, where they can hide from potential predators. As semi-arboreal snakes, young Boa constrictors may climb into trees and shrubs to forage however, they become mostly terrestrial as they become older and heavier. They are nocturnal, but they may bask during the day when night-time temperatures are too low. Boa constrictors generally live on their own and do not interact with any other snakes unless they want to mate.
