    Question New home.

    I made my snake a new home in a basic sterilite container with only the basics: 2 hides (one on each side) and a water dish. She isn't going to shed anytime soon, but when she's ready to should I add something extra to help her shed easier or is that necessary?

    Re: New home.

    That's usually unnecessary in sterelite tub setups. What you need to do is be aware of the humidity levels. If they stay near 60% all the time, then you shouldn't have to do anything during the shed cycle. If they are typically lower, 40%-50% all the time...then you may need to mist a few days during the shed cycle.


    And by misting, I just mean giving the inside of the tub a little spritz with a squirt bottle of clean water.

    Re: New home.

    She's been in her new home since last night and she's still awake and moving. Is that to be expected?
