Im newb with BP's

[QUOTE=JoshJP7;674962]You really really really need to do something about that humidity... 23% is asking for an RI... QUOTE]

I had no idea low huimidity was the cause of Respitory Infection. SHOOT! My BP is hanging out in about 25% himidity right now.
I just moved houses and in my new place humidity is a strong 0%.

I even have an automatic mister hooked up and it sprays once every hour for 15second. and I still only get 25%. At least it's not zero but it's defenetly not at a safe percentage.
I use a glass tank right now...
Any suggestions other then changing to a rubbermaid tub...
I could cover the top of the enclosure but then I couldn't sit my heats lamps on it and then I would have temp problems...
any suggestions would be good?
I can actually set my mister so it will mist for more then 15seconds per hours. I think I can set it up to one minute or even more. Perhaps I can try that! :weirdface

Why arnt either of you willing to go to a tub? Im not joking... its like INSTANT humidity fixer. You dont have to fanagle with any BS... Like I said its gonna cost you more money to mess with it to MAYBE get it above 50%...

1.) cover the whole top with plexi glass... If you need to use a heat lamp cut out a circle for the hood... Make it as tight and as close to perfect... The more space the more heat/humidty escapes.

2.) Now you need to get fresh O2 into the tank... Buy a retptile humidifier from petco for 20$... but an air pump... 15$.. follow the directions and your golden.

3.) Can the heat lamps... if you need to use em get a CHE... they dont provide any light and dont eat up the humidity as much. Note if you do need the heat lamp you need to separate thermostats... cant have a light and heat pad hooked up to the same thing....

If your not switchin to tubs bc "tanks look better"... you can see right through a tub and see everything just as good... If you care that much about looks use a tub for a couple yrs and when its full grown build it an enclosure... 2 yrs in a tub.. 18 yrs in a nice enclosure... Your snakes health is #1... not your viewing pleasure... If you can make it work in glass then sweet rock on... I still use a 40gal for my RTB... but if you cant... switch to a tub.

Thanks for your opinion and ideas!!!
