Hey, I just got my baby ball python two weeks ago, and its time for him to shed! He hasnt shed in a few days even though pieces are coming off of him in chunks. I know the problem is my humidity, and I was wondering if you guys had any advice for me to keep it at a steady rate! I just bought one of the thermometers and humidity things in one but I also have another thermostat for the warm side of his tank.
I think what my problem is is that I live in the mountains and it can be fairly cold and dry outside. With the heat bulbs and under the cage pad on the tank stays at around 90 or the warm side and 78 on the cool side. But my problem is humidity. Ill spray the tank multiple time and I can get the humidity up to seventy, but it drops so quickly that it goes right back to 35 in about 10 minutes. He isn't shedding and im starting to worry. I read the forum on a bad shed and how to deal with it so im going to do that tonight, but i want to see if there is any thing I could do about the humidity in the long run.
My dad was thinking about just getting a normal humidifier for my room and that could help but I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions! Thank you!
