In Reply to: Day/Night temperature in rubber boas posted by Henri on March 28, 2003 at 09:38:10:
In the wild, Rubber Boas generally have to deal with a variety of temps including significant day/night differences. I think they are fairly flexible, as long as it is not too warm. 27°C should be about the maximum, and they should have access to somewhere cooler at all times.
I know wild females bask, but at night I am sure they have to withdraw and wait until the next day to find warmth again.
As for keeping them together, I keep my adults together most of the year and my adult male is a fraction of the size of my adult female, so I am sure babies would be OK, especially in a large cage like you are keeping them. You would have to separate for feeding obviously.
If you haven't seen it before, check out Ryan Hoyer's Rubber Boa site at the link below -
