    Humidity Issues, need help
    Is a constant humidity of around 75-80% ok for a Florida Kingsnake? I can't seem to get his humidity down ever since I got him around a month ago. He is in a 41q tub, inside of a rack and seems happy as can be. No condensation or wet tubs or anything that would indicate moisture.

    I'm assuming its not a huge deal seeing as Florida, their natural environment, is always 65-70%+, if not 95%.

    Colubrids dont do well with high humidity. Its okay during sheds but 40-50% is best.

    Yeah i would solder more holes in the tub. I know in my 41 quart rack the humidity is 80% without even trying, so i can see the issue your having. Just put some more holes in the tub and you'll be fine.

    I use an oscillating fan to circulate air around and through my tubs, which helps me control my humidity...
