Any ideas for my homemade boa enclosure?

December 5, 2010 - 10:26 pm

I have this old closet like thing, its kind of like a dresser but taller and its all open space. Its really pretty and I have nothing to use it for, so i got the idea to make a homemade snake enclosure for the boa Im getting. Could i go to home depot to get the doors removed and replaced with plastic or glass doors? Or where could I go to have that done?

You have to remember that boas need a certain amount of heat and humidity. They also need a hot side (with a lamp) and a cool side, if your dresser isn’t wide enough to accommodate that than I wouldn’t bother. The dresser itself could also become damaged from the humidity levels. It would be so much easier to just sell/donate the dresser and buy a proper tank for your snake.
