I use FreeBSD and regularly run jails, but haven't done so on a large scale in a production environment. I hadn't encountered BSDploy before but it looks neat. It relies on EZjail and Ansible, both of which I have encountered before. Using them together with some fancy Python and stellar documentation seems like a great thing. In addition to Ansible, I know SaltStack works fine on FreeBSD. I haven't looked in to other configuration management tools. Running one of the above in a jail should work just the same as running it on a host.
