How long is too long for the humidity to be over 70%??? I misted my lil boy as he is about to shed and must have misted a little too much. Don't want scalerot to set in. It has only been maybe 30 minutes.

There shoulb be no problem it wont get scale rot...it only gets scale rot if its a daily basis thing.....but humidity should be kept high only during shed....

Yeah I know that it should be higher during the shed process and I had him out earlier and seen his eyes were glazed over so I figured it was time to raise it up a little but went too much. Normally it is between 55-65%. Thanks the scalerot thing had me a bit worried.

The humidity during shed should be 65-70% me personally i like keeping it 70-80% the most...it gives my snake a complete shed with no problem....

Well it will start to look brown in their underscales and yeah they will move if a place is getting to hot...some cases they prefer to get burn because if they move the ambient temp is too low... the minimun should be at 80* the highest should be around 85*...does ur snake move alot?...what are you checking your temos with??

They don't have much feeling in the ventral scales... they will burn. That's why you shouldn't let the hottest spot get much above 96*, preferably 90-94*

Well right now all I have is a digital therm and hygro in the tubs I am waiting on a new rack with heat tape built in with a thermostat and a temp gun. So my ambient temp is usually 80-81 degrees. I was just curios about the burn thing.
