    I would not ever suggest intentionally growing mould in a Savannah viv, however it is still a simple truth not all mould is bad.

    You control every aspect of an enclosure temps (hot cool ambient) the nature of the humidity and ventilation. Just don't grow mould, proper ventilation and correct environmental controls for a ball python will not grow mould unless something is not correct or you have introduced spores, and provided it with correct mould growing conditions (incorrect for ball pythons). A careful use of a fogger will not change that. It is one of a multitude of solutions to a humidity problem.

    I apparently misunderstood what was being said the only person I thought was mentioning growing mould in a ball python was yourself. I guess that is wrong?

    I was simply trying to determine if mainbutter thought growing mold in a BP enclosure was acceptable, desired, despised, or the best thing since pockets on shirts.

    I did not wish to start a big debate and I am just getting my enclosure setup. I was just wondering if it was a solution to misting by hand everyday. Thanks for all the helpful info. I don't like the Idea of all the bacteria buildup. That is why I don't see it used. Thanks.
