When I wuz a ute, there was an older kid in the ‘hood who kept snakes in his basement. He later got a job at the Zoo, doing same.

If they’ve got correct heating provided, a basement is a great place for a snake room.

It’s dark, humid and not prone to excess vibrations.

Unfortunately, my “basement” is a creepy dirt root cellar dug nearly 300 years ago.

With the indigenous snakes who live down there, there’d be a huge conflict of interest...LOL

My Dumerils Boa, being cannibalistic by nature, ~might~ enjoy it.

The Colombian Boa, believing that he is actually a human unfairly trapped in a snake body, would definitely -not-.

He watched the debates with us just now and threw a hissy fit when it was time for him to go back into his split-level BoaCondo.

He’d curled up behind ‘daddy’ with his head on the chair arm and was quite happily watching TV when “bad guy Mom” said “time for bed”.

Had a rip of a time getting him to let go of my arm after I’d placed him back into his home.

;D
