I will sometimes mist their cages during a shed or just to give them a little rain effect but that's about it. Even though many of these critters may originate from more tropical places most have been bred in captivity, some for generations, and they've acclimated to their current environments. I could be wrong and if I ever see a bad shed or hear an animal wheezing then I'll raise the temps and humidity but until then it's business as usual.
Yup. As long as your snake is fine, keep doing what you're doing.
