Room humitity... tub humitity

Hey guys I am working out a small humitity problem and need some advice...
I have a room that measures 28ft X 34ft and I have been setting it up for ball pythons. It currently houses around 75 ball bythons. I had a some humitity problems early on and went back to using the tops on the tubs and that worked out well. I have just built some new racks, and wanted to get away from using the tops. I have been about a month or so with out tops,and had low humitity as a result of the current rack set up. I would mist daily but couldnt get where I wanted to be. As a result I suffered 3 respertory infection ( all being treated as we speak) I have now added 3 large buckets of water in the room and a humitifier ( i used the heated one not the cool mist. I am not sure if thats a problem or not).My current room humitity is about 52-59 depending on heat out put. I keep my room at 80-82 degrees. My hot spot is about 90 - 94 depending on what shelf of the rack. I get to about 60 Humitiy in the larger tubs and the sub adults seem to get between 65- 80 humitity. Those temps and current humitiy numbers seem to be pretty solid but I am just wanting a second opinion or more lol. I will get some pics of the rack and tubs this eveing if I can to show you the set up.. Thanks in advance guys...:confused:

I mean all the numbers look good. I just switched from using paper towels in my tubs, to using Cypress and it made a gigantic difference, maybe even too much humidity. Have you tried cypress? It $2.25 for 2 cubic feet at Lowes and we've called the manufacturer and they saws used to cut the cypress are throughly cleaned before cutting cedar. Most companies just cut all woods with the same saw, no cleaning.

Granted if your humidity is constant at 50-60%, then you should be fine!

I currently use butcher paper. I have not tried anything else at this point. I may be looking into this very soon.

Thanks Jacob

I live in desert conditions and what I do is run this large humidifier from Sears

And control it with a humidistat from Charley's Greenhouse supply.

I keep my snake room at around 45% humidity and inside the tubs its about 10% higher.
