Right I have decided to buy Fea a viv and I really like this one:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/270850752791?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Fea is 30" now at just over 4mnths.

Thing is I want to add natural vines, a root and a bamboo root play gym. A natural bark background and loads of plants

Also for heating I fancy infrared so I can see him without having to put the bedroom light on ..so in this size of viv would 150W be enough?

I already have a Habistat dimmer stat, I bought awhile ago.

Fea is an incredibly confident snake, so in your opinion is this too big?

Thanks :)

Well the price is about inline with most of the main Viv traders. As for the size, sorry I have no idea how large your Boa will grow, or need.

I think 48" would be fine..its just the extra floor space and a couple of inches more in height would be great for the decor and furniture I would like to add...lol its all big.

Thanks mark for replying :)

everyone seems to rave about surrey pets being the cheapest, and they are asking just a few ££ less and will not deliver so the ebay auction seems to be a bargain.

I order all the Silent Crickets for Gimli from this place and they always arrive in a couple of days..sometimes next day. Living in N.E Scotland that is great delivery..and I had 1000 this morning with only one dead.

OK, I think March is my next trip up to sunny scotland lol. I was there 10 days ago, I landed at 10am, the sun was out, no rain. Arrived at the office and it really poured down. A few hours later and it was snowing heavy. Finally at 3pm I was back at the airport and back to just normal rain.
