Since he is using the cage humidifier than I would think it's safe to say their humidity is low.
I used one for over a year when I kept my bp in a glass tank. Kept it a nice even 55%. Had it running along the back wall of the tank.
Sometimes if you take your bp out on a regular basis and just let him get use to you then they will stop the hissing and biting one they realize your not a threat. But you may incounter a bite or two along the way

But - do you really need a humidifier for your snake's area? Isn't it making the humidity too high?
Actually it's currently keeping it at 52%. Misting twice a day bumps it up to 55-58%.
There are cat people, and there are dog people. There are snake people, rat people, horse people, lizard people...and then there are people like me. Stupid people.
Oh, right - I have learned something here. I've never heard of a cage humidifier (maybe we don't have them here in the UK). I was thinking ordinary kind of humidifers generating a lot of dampness. It actually sounds like a pretty good think especially to help with shedding.

Isn't it pretty humid in the UK? Would you have a need for one?
( I could be totally wrong, and I am sorry. I am just curious!)
With any of mine I pet them from behind the head down the body to let them know I'm there and make sure they are awake, they are usually balled up so I hold them flat handed until they un-ball and start to explore. Hand washing after handling rats/mice is a must. My girlfriend didn't follow that rule and got hit by one of the big ones. Funny thing was all the kids were in the room and I brought them all over and showed them why we wash our hands after touching rats/mice before handling the snakes (as my girlfriend is standing there bleeding and being on display at the same time.) Now I have no problems with hand washing!
