HI. Firstly keeping them together is not a good idea. There are numerous reasons for this which you will find using the search button above.

An adult Rainbow boa would be happy in a cage of 1.2 to 1.5 metres in length with the sides and the height about half the length. Just remember they like high humidity so make sure you cage can withstand that.

Great answer, Bushviper. The rule on the US side is generally a minimum enclosure size of three feet by two feet, or six square feet of floor space. I personally like to give more, and use four by twos for all my adults. Note that adults are mostly terrestrial, whereas babies seem to be morre active climbers. A viv that can maintain high humidity is, as Bushviper pointed out, crucial.

I would also echo his point on housing separately.
