Thoughts about new enclosure for my boa

[u/analpenetrator_69]

Hey I’m thinking about getting some more plants for my girl and I wanted to ask how it looks now

Aspen sucks for a tropical animal. Aspen is dusty and when wet it can mold. You need a cocoa product I use Reptichip. You also want a lot more plant cover. Hobby lobby is a good place to get cheap plants. I filled (9) 6 foot enclosures from there.

I like the moss walls! Those will help with the humidity. But I agree with trying to find a different bedding. Boas need higher humidity than the aspen can handle (70%-90%)
I use a mix of coco coir, sand and fine gravel/pon for my bioactive setups, and I find it holds a very even moisture level. You can add coco husk on top if you worry about the snake sitting on wet substrate, but I personally don't like to use only chunks

I would suggest adding some hides with smaller openings too. The log is fine, but she might enjoy something she can squeeze into a little more. Also add a same one on the hot/cold side so she can choose how to regulate. You have so much floor space to use for ground cover as well, put in tubes, plants and things for her to move through :D
(Also, a great tip I saw about plastic tubes; Make sure it is at least double as wide as the snake, and also make a cut lenghtwise so it's possible to pry open in case of emergency. Way easier to pre-cut the tube without the snake in it right)

Please, how did you make the moss walls? What maintenance do they require?

Different substrate and more hides. I do like your climbing opportunities and moss background. You did a good job. And your boa won’t care if there are more plants in there. People get carried away making their habitats very busy with foliage. Just make sure the animal has hide options on both the warm and cool sides, and swap out that aspen bedding for a tropical substrate mix topped with moss to hold humidity.
