Unfortunately, this is common. I advise you to buy a digital indoor/outdoor hygrometer for that purpose. Accurite is the brand of choice.

Normal humidity levels should be 50-60%

Shedding time humidity should be 70-80%

do they usually sell these at pet stores?

They have them at Walmart & Target for around $15. .... They also sometimes sell them at harware stores.

I would recommend the accurite thermometer/hygrometer you can get at wal mart. I know there are alot of people here that have them and would probablly also recommend them. I think they're like $15-$20

in case you wanna look it up on the net, the brand is spelled "Acu-Rite"... took me a few mintues to try & figure that one out ;)
