:I am thinking about getting a sand boa and my friend and I have been debating about size, he thinks they get several feet and I think they get at most about 2 feet. I also would like to know
:1. How long do they live?
:2. Do they realy live in 10-15 gallon cages?
:3. What is a reasonable price?
:4. During what months are they "in season"?
:5. how often do you feed them and how much per month does it cost

First off your friend is an idiot. Males are around 18 inches and females around 22 inches. They can be kept in a 10 to 15 gallon tank(although i use rubbermaids). Aspen bedding is perfect. Give them undertank heat. One spot can be 86 the rest can be room temp. Gravid females may use a spot that's a tad warmer. Most baby Kenyans cost around 50$ maybe 35$. Unless you want a different morph which is more. Cost is cheap. A baby sand boa will eat a small pinky every 4-7 days. Adults will take adult mice. Please do more research. This is just a quick overview
