Humidity

[ms381]

ms381, most of the humidity gauges are way way off. I have 4 digital ones and one is accurate, the others are silly how incorrect they are, I have two more MORE than 50% off! My guess is your gauge is wrong.

This thread is not really about if my gauges are right or wrong, I'm trying to give some advice on the use of humid hides to someone else.

My gauges are fine, high quality digital gauges, one for my apartment and one in each of the tubs of each snake. As I said my other snake shed fine, One snake had a small stuck shed on his back. What I was trying to suggest is that the shedding process could be different from snake to snake, just giving extra options such as humid hides can benefit the snakes, they can use them or notdepending on their needs during the shedding process.

I do enjoy posting on this sight, but I do get annoyed that if you offer some advice or comment upon past experiences people jump straight onto their husbandry high hoarse. I try to strive for the best husbandry as i can but snakes are individuals in a collection, just because one has had or bad shed or gone of feed or behaves this way or that way, doesn't mean it's a husbandry issue. It could just be the snakes individual biology or reaction to their micro climate at that time even if it's near perfect.
