Boas under 4.5’ 
I wanted a big snake but mum don’t.I’ve looked through all sorts of kingsnakes and milksnakes but decided on getting a boa. I’m relatively new to boas so I would like to know of some that are under 4.5’ at full size because thats where mum drew the line.

Rosy, sand, rainbows boas and a few tree boas(trees not normally handleable) might be your best bet.

I’m not a snake owner, but I read a few of the forums to see what I can learn. Why are tree boas not handleable?PE

Its up to you. If you want go cheap(what i call boring) go frozen. But if you wanna go more expensive(what i call fun) go live. But never feed live rats cuz they can bite and scare.

Handle them as much as you can just give them a 3 day period of no handling after they eat.

sorry about all the questions. I’m just trying to learn everything I can about them before I get one. Would a 3foot by 3foot tank that is 3feet tall be big enough to accomodate 1 colombian rainbow boa?

Get a ball python. Be sure its captive bred. Stay away from all tree boas and pythons, their extremelly agressive.
