Resuced Hog island boa and a few questions

[bigsnakegirl785]

That's not a Hog Island boa. It's a hypo Colombian-type. I see no reason to believe it's a mix, either.

Judging by your hand next to it, it's either the size of my ghost boa, or in between my sunglow and ghost boa. So, it should probably be eating weaned rats. Which are 2-3x the size of a jumbo adult mouse.

The bedding also looks dry, which isn't good for a tank set up. I pour water directly into the bedding, and mix it up. Do it in sections so if you mess up you can just mix in the dry bedding to dry it out. When you're done, it should be dark and expanded from its dry state, but still fall freely from your hands without clumping up. If it clumps, it's too wet.

Ditch the analog thing there and get a digital hygrometer/thermometer, you'll get better results. Humidity should be 70-80%.

Best case scenario you ditch the tank completely and buy a tub or PVC enclosure, it will make your life easier. A tub is really cheap and you can get one set up for well under $100, including heat tape and a thermostat. You just can't have ambient heat, so that's why if you can afford it, I'd advise a PVC enclosure, so you can get a heat panel set up in it. You're looking at several hundred dollars, though, between the cage and the panel. You can still use a cheap thermostat like the Hydrofarm on Amazon, but I'd advise getting a Herpstat or Vivarium Electronics with pulse-proportional as they are more reliable than Hydrofarm and pulse-proportional is healthier for your heating elements than ON/OFF.

Also: a tub isn't suitable for life-long housing, so eventually you'd need to invest in a bigger enclosure.
