No, they are not venomous.
However, they are very large snakes with very strong feeding instincts. Even without venom, they can inflict a nasty bite, and should be left to experienced reptile keepers.

∙ 12y agoBoas are not poisonous because they are constrictors. They do not need poison to kill their prey they squeeze it to death. It's the same with pythons; they both constrict because they are both types of constrictors. The biggest difference between the two is that boas have live young and pythons lay eggs.
