    What temperature water did you use?

    The water should be the same temperature that you would use to wash a baby in... warm but not hot (mid 80's)

I dont want him to stress too much till it arives without a hide.
    What type of hides are they? Rock type, half log, plastic, other?

    They are rock type hydes. I ended up putting them in bleach rinseing them off and drying them an putting them back into the tank. i just have the 2 hides and a water bowl in the middle now with the paper towel. Hard to keep the humidity up now thou cuz i dont want to mist with the paper towel as bedding cuz it will get damp..

    You can mist your cage, maybe not as much, but it should be fine. They will dry out after a few hours.

    And putting the hides back in was fine. Its mainly the half log type that can cause issues IMO

    The hides will be fine, and misting the paper towels will not be a problem. Half of my BPs are on newspaper right now with no issues from misting.
