What do you all recommend for Humidity?

I have been keeping my humidity for my BP at 50-60%, and about 60-70% when she sheds. What is a good guideline level to follow?

What you are doing is perfect. Keep your humidity where it is and you'll be good to go.

Mine live in Sterilite tubs and we're near the ocean, so humidity stays around 50-55 without any help. I don't bother raising it during shed either, since they don't seem to have a problem... only two bad sheds in over a year, and those were corn snakes (slightly different requirements). So IMO 50-60% is fine all the time, but maybe I'm just lucky? :cool:

i have cypress mulch which is s'posed to be good for humidity. i am also waiting on 2 water bowls which i hope will be enough to raise the humidity to at least 50%. i dont want to have to spray anything cuz i dont want the snake crawling on damp substrate & end up with scale rot.
is there any way to raise the humidity to 65-70% for shedding without spraying?
i only have a little bit of screen on top of my visionarium terrarium so that'll be easy to cover, do i cover all of it or only some? i dont want any heat or humidity escaping & causing problems.

Our guys humidity levels usually run in the 70% bracket, low 80's. Yes, I know this makes more work for us but we don't mind. During shed time it runs 80's to 90's. And we are in the desert southwest. Right now the relative humidity outside is 11%, to give you an idea of what we are up against.

With the Exo tanks they have air vents all along the front edge and I made glass tops with plastic grip handles on each one so they can be removed if need be. Without them on we notice about a 10% to 15% humidity drop within a very short time.

We have run them like this for years - never any molds or scale rot and best of all no URI's.

I used to check humidity alot in the snake room and in the cages and the average humidity was always low around 50%. I seemed to have problem sheds in the middle of winter when the heat was on a lot and the middle of summer with the ac. So I put a coral tank in the snake room and it evaporates about 8 gallons of water a week.

Since the addition of the coral tank we have had 0 problem sheds and the little humidity gauge we have in the corner registers about 65-70% as a constant.

You should not have any issues with scale rot from spraying the tank, unless you soak it.

50% is just about perfect. As we live in a very arid region, my BP enclosures usually hang out around 30 to 40%. I haven't noticed any problems, as long as it is bumped up when they begin the shed cycle.

I never measure humidity levels, as long as they're shedding fine it must be right.
