Sand boas are generally docile, I have never even been struck at by one. Not to say that it can't happen but in general. They really like to hide in their substrate. Alot of the info you can find on caresheets is what I can tell you. Just do lots of research and make sure to have the cage set up and ready to go before you bring one home. Also give it time to adjust to it's new home before you start handling it and at least a few days before you try to feed it. Hope this helps some.
Welcome to the forums!!! Snakes are like chips, you can't have just one...LOL
