Thank you for the reply KMG, i always appreciate ur advice I did place miss in all his hides but then he refused to use them. He started favouring one corner of his tank where he was in open view. He spent days outside his hide. Only when the moss was fully dry would he renter his hides. It was defeating the purpose and to avoid stress I thought it was best to pull the moss out and use it in the corners of the tank.

Im going out tomorrow to get another hygrometer, maybe 2. Then I can measure throughout the tank. I'm thinking since the tank is large it's not measuring the entire tank and giving me readings of higher humidity in areas where Boston doesn't spend a lot of his time making it useless to him.

I just assumed that he would seek out the hider humidity area when he needed it. Similar to how he moves from the warm side to the cool. But when I introduced a humid hide he wouldn't even use that.
