Hello everyone,
I was recently having some heating and light issues with my ball python's habitat but they have been resolved thanks to the caresheet provided on the site and the user(s) who gave me some helpful advice. However, I have ran into another issue. I had to increase the bulb wattage in the heat lamp in order to maintain an appropriate ambient and basking temperature but because of this my humidity levels are falling fast. I currently have a manual mister, which temporarily raises the humidity to ~50% but just after an hour it falls back to the 25-30% range which is not good. I'm busy during the day and can't manually mist the tank every hour. How can I resolve this issue? I know there are automatic misters/foggers available for purchase but my local pet store(s) only had one or two in stock. Can anyone suggest me an automatic mister/fogger that will keep my ball python's habitat at a comfortable humidity level? I'm willing to go above and beyond to keep my little guy comfortable and healthy, but please do not suggest anything that is too ridiculously priced.
Thank you in advance,
~Jim
