Humidity Problem
What's the best way to keep the humidity up in the cage besides misting? As winter rolled around it always goes to the mid 40s unless I mist every hour.

Re: Humidity Problem
how sealed is the habitat/cage that your snake is in?if it is pretty well sealed, (but to where the snake still gets air, and it's pretty warm, u shouldn't have to mist much. we haven't misted jenna forever, and her cage stays at about 70-80 percent humid all the time.

Re: Humidity Problem
Cover the top with plexi-glass and/or get a room humidifier.

Re: Humidity Problem
Here's what I do for the corn. Gives me about a 55% humidity level.
If you covered the cage even more, it would boost it more.
The humidifiers aren't that big, nor expensive. |
