for ever. the only time you put them in the same tank is when you are breeding. you never want to house them together other than for that reason!!

Well if you have a screen top lid it is very hard to keep humidity and heat in. What i did till i made a plexglass doors for my was put saran warp over the screen it keeps the humidity in . Just leave a water bowl in there and you should be find. You might want to set all your tanks and test them out before you put your boa's in them
