65-70 radiant humidity. Do I need to use a dehumidifier ?

[speedycat222]

My rooms radiant humidity is around 60-70, do I need to use a dehumidifier ? I haven't had a RI or anything as of yet. I have a dehumidifier in the other room, but I don't want to use it if I don't have to because it makes noise and vibrates.

unless you have issues, no

Okay, thanks. Suppose I don't have to mist except during shed cycles either ?

If the humidity in the enclosure is 65 to 70 you may not have to mist at all.

My humidity stays around that same % and I've never had any issues with it. As long as your ambient temps are where they should be you'll be fine

It dips as low as 73 on cold nights, but it normally stays around 75-78. I'm thinking about getting a small room heater, but I don't want my bedroom to be 82 degrees 24/7.

You won't need a room heater for those temps as long as you have a hotspot with sufficiently high temps.

Yes, 88-92 from tub to tub, belly heat. I've noticed my animals thermoregulate not so much by going into their cool side hide, but dragging the hot side hide off the hot spot a bit. If I move it back they move it forward again, and right after eating they either go behind it or drag it back. Smarter animals then people give them credit for.

Haha mine do the same and my snakes never have had an issues with these ambients either.
