    Condensation in Hide
    Now that the furnace is running, humidity is dropping. To counter this I have started to change from aspen to Reptichip in my tubs and have a small humidifier running in the room my snakes are in.
    Hot spot is 90. Keeping the room at 80 with a space heater.
    I have changed out 3 of the 8 tubs so far of the ones starting to go into shed.
    After a day, I pulled the hides to spot check and they all had condensation inside. Usually this happens after they pee but the bedding was dry.
    I am assuming this is from the new substrate being damp and the hide sitting in the back over the heat tape?

    Yep. Pretty common result from being warm and wet below a hide.
