    ok,i know corns dont need as much humidity but right now in the tank it says 65%, is that too high for a corn ? I guess i can take of the saran wrap but then i would loose some heat in there. it is also about 65% in my bps tank, is that good ?

    I think anywhere between 50-60% is good. I think 65% is a bit high, but probably not enough to worry or anything. Not sure about the cornsnake humidity. I haven't ever read a caresheet that actually mentions the range of humidity prefered. I just read one site that said humidity ranging from 50-70% is fine for a corn. Then I read another site that said they only need moderate humidity, maybe around 40-50%, with a humid hide provided somewhere in the tank. I dunno.. :confused:


    Edit: Just checked out the corn caresheet on here. Here's the bit on humidity...

    Fortunately corn snakes are very low-maintenance regarding humidity requirements. Normal household ambient humidity is fine for this species, however, if incomplete or stuck sheds are observed humidity can be raised slightly by providing a humidity box for the snake

    Try taking some of the saran wrap off, piece by piece till you get your humidity at 55-60.
