Hello everybody im after a bit of info, have had a CRB for a few months that is doing fine but i have a chance of a baby Pastel Boa and am finding it hard to find set-up info for them. Does the set-up need to be damp like my rainbow and misted daily.Any info you could pass on would be greatfully recieved. Also in the advert he says they are hook fed is this the same as fed with tweezers.

Thanks Steve

Hey there Steve and welcome to the forum. The caresheet that gmac pointed you to looks excellent. BCC/BCI temperature and humidity needs are different than Rainbows. Hope you're ready for a larger snake.

Be cautious of trying to keep the humidity too high though, BCC/BCI are more prone to respiratory infection caused by excess humidity.

If you have any more questions please don't hesitate to ask. Look forward to seeing some pics of your critters.

Nice collection of animals you got there Steve. "Pat the Escapee" is funny. Pretty cool that you got him back after 6 months though. Pretty little CRB there too.
