| Popped into a local pet shop and he had 3 cb13 dwarf boas 2 pastels and a super pastel no idea if that's even a morph don't know much about them :p anyway had a hold of the super pastel was the most gentlest snake I've ever held, thinking of buying one for my collection but no idea on there husbandry anyone else keep one and could give me some info would be great :) (what temps/humidity they need, how big they grow etc) as for price he wanted £85 for the super and offered me both pastels (one male one female) for £120 he bred them himself :) |

From what I've read, pastel is more of a selectively bred thing than an actual morph.
The dwarf thing with boas can be a bit hit-or-miss too - if not a locale, its again likely a selectively bred normal, which means it COULD grow larger.
Since the guy bred them, you could ask how big the parents are 
Boas in general are lovely though. Mine have a 90F-ish warm bit, and around 80 at the cool end, with around 55% humidity, nice big water bowls and plenty to climb on |

| Could they be kept like corns a nice rub, statted heat mat? He said the parents are only 3.5 the females slightly larger just pushing 4ft, fell in love with him as soon as I held him its a change from a corn (still love all mine :p) as for humidity how could that be achieved as he's got his baby's in 5lt rubs as there only a few months old and he said he just gives the kitchen roll substrate a quick spray once or twice a day :) |

Dinky ones can do fine in a rub with a mat, yep 
Misting and bigger waterbowls make the humidity lark easy peasy; boas do tend to be pretty tough anyways so they arent going to drop dead if the humidity is a bit off lol |

| Well was thinking doing the same as what I would do with a corn a nice rub/ faun then around a year old move them into a 3ft viv or a bigger rub what are boas like as they get older still fine with a heatmatt or should I just introduce a ceramic in the 3ft viv:) |
