I know, but up in PA the problem is self-correcting. A Boa is a tropical snake and will not survive the winters there unless, possibly, they could ‘den’ up with other Boas.
Chances of that are pretty slim.
Boids cannot “den up” like colubrids do.
They are not able to “hibernate”.
They just freeze to death.
They have *very* rigid, high temp needs.
“Denning up” will. It help, since snakes are cold blooded and don’t generate any body beat with which to keep each other warm.
Yeah, I envy them on this issue.
