Yes. Sand boas are vertebrates as are all snakes.
Do kenyan sand boas bite?
Yes they are! If you live in a apartment or a small space, a Kenyan sand boa (if you have a really small space, then get a male) is an excellent choice. They are fairly not too expensive (counts on the morph and sometimes even gender) and are fairly docile snakes, but hog noses are great choices too for a small living space.

How big of a terriaum or tank do Kenyan sand boas need?
Kenyan sand boas typically require a tank size of at least 20 gallons for a single adult snake. For juveniles, a smaller enclosure, like a 10-gallon tank, can suffice. It's important to provide adequate substrate for burrowing, along with hiding spots and a temperature gradient to ensure their comfort and health. Additionally, larger enclosures can benefit these snakes by allowing more space to explore and exercise.

What is the Kenyan Sand boas habitat like?
The Kenyan Sand boa (Gongylophis colubrinus) typically inhabits arid and semi-arid regions, including savannas, grasslands, and sandy deserts. They prefer environments with loose, sandy soil that allows for easy burrowing, providing them shelter from predators and extreme temperatures. These snakes are often found hiding under rocks, leaf litter, or within their burrows, where they can maintain moisture and avoid the heat of the day.
Is a boa a boa constrictor?
yes apparently any kind of boa chokes and their all related to an anacondaEDIT: No, not in the stereotypical sense. Sand boas (I imagine you are referring to the Kenyan sand boa) max out around 2 ft. and don't have the stereotypical widened jaw. My sand boa is a 3 year old male that just reached 1 1/2 ft.
