Rack question

[SpottedBOA]

When my rack gets here I am switching all my Balls to the rack. I have a question about humidity. Will the humidity stay in range if i put paper as the bedding with a water dish and a small hide? I have never used a rack before so any information on making a rack work would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks

to many variables to answer that, try something and see how it goes and adjust, changes for every household.

First question would be, what type of rack?

A rack i bought from Animalplastics.com it comes with the heat tape. And i have the tubs for it.

I have an Animal Plastics CB70 rack with the closed sides and back (not the economy plastics version) and the humidity stays roughly where I want it without much extra effort. I have a 5 inch water dish and a reptile basics plastic hide in each level, when I clean and refill water dishes I do splash the water from my fingers onto the newspaper substrate, but its not very much water. You may still want to mist the enclosure during dry months or times when your snake is shedding, but then again all rooms are different and your rack may require more or less moisture than mine does. Be sure to closely monitor your heat and humidity when you set the animals up, and you'll easily be able to tell if adjustments need to be made.
