The link in my sig will provide some re-directs to several prefab options if you're interested in searching out other options... or you can ask around the site for some plans and thoughts about building your own if you felt so inclined.
I can tell you that I have no humidity issues at all with Boaphile Plastics cages or the like. They are also easily stacked, easy to clean, easy to heat and attractive. Good luck!

Yeah I read that somewhere else. I only had issues with her shed when I first bought her. Other then that I get flawless sheds from her, 3 so far. I usually put a towels over half of the cage and keep a container of water near the light source along with spraying the tank. The sypress subtrate I use also hols moisture very well.
I was thinkinfor spraying the tank floor, then laying the bedding since it hold moisture so well, but I was concerned with infection/mold and nixed the idea.
