I had been asking questions about humidity and I came across an article stating that often ball python owners think that high humidity is necessary for good health, but it dramatically increases the risk of belly rot when its habitat is consistantly damp. In the end, a constant humidity of 50% is fine for bps. I'm guessing the exception is while they are in shed though. 2 sheds ago, i had good humidity levels and got a perfect one piece shed. The last time, humidity was a struggle and I got a patchy shed, but still complete.
