    Humidity

    Well, I got my male bp a plastic home to replace his glass aquarium in order to raise the humidity. However, his humidity is now at 88%! How do I lower it??? I've got about 6 holes in the front, 4 holes on each side and 8 holes on the top.

    More holes. I have holes staggered all the way down both sides of mine in two rows about 1/2 to 1 inch apart from one another.

    Get rid of the cypress mulch first. That will make your humidity sky high.

    drills tend to crack my tubs so i use a soldering iron and melt the holes about 1/2" inch apart and it usually is spot on.
