What type of cage would work best?
I currently have a butter corn snake that I really like. I am also thinking about getting a smaller boa, maybe like a Costa Rican boa, Hogg island or BRB. The butter corn is a baby and the boa would also be a baby. I would like to get a cage that is like one cage, but can house two snakes separately. Where can I get one of these online? Any links for me?
Thanks! Lou.

Re: What type of cage would work best?
Your corn will take average humidity of around 50%.
Your normal Boas will take a bit more around 55-65%.
The Brazilian Rainbow will take 90%+.
I always start my babies of in Rubbermaid or Sterilite tubs. They are cheap, secure and will hold humidity very well.

50% for a corn? preposterous.

You are correct. My key word here was AVERAGE, 30 - 60 is fine.
Most areas run approx., 40-50 %

Doesn't it depend which on locale of corn snake you get? The one I have was wild caught from a very swampy area of Florida where humidity is high.

Suggesting something that the OP actually asked for.......You can go with a boaphile if you'd like something more terrestrially oriented. They have an option for a center divider to house 2 species separately.
