    Re: Long time breeder says humidity control isn't actually needed?
    This is where i differ. We abandoned screen tops and chipped bedding long ago. A simple radiant side and a t5 maintains it all. Fully planted with bio soil mix.

    I'm sure that the humidity he's mentioning has a lot to do with his location. I'm in the Mojave desert - outside humidity right now is 20%, indoor is 43%. My tubs are all between 55 and 62% just by keeping their water bowls full. I don't have problem sheds because as soon as I see anything that looks like they're getting ready to shed, I fold a damp paper towel behind their water bowl to give the humidity a little bump into the 70's. If I lived in a more humid environment, I'm sure it wouldn't be necessary. I do like the humidifier idea, I'll have to check into getting one.
