Amazon Tree Boas are highly arboreal, and therefore require a large arboreal enclosure with thermostatically controlled and guarded overhead heating.
UV lighting is beneficial. Temperatures should be measured with digital thermometers or a heat gun for accuracy.
There should be plenty of climbing opportunities and perches available in the form of branches, cork flats and rounds, vines and fake/live plants.
