    Re: 80% humidity for BP, vet visit story?

Well I have been keeping balls for just short of a decade now and no RI yet. Ball python husbandry is like everything else in life. If you hear info don't roll your eyes at it. Listen to it and take notes. There isn't always just one answer to everything. I feel ambient temps of 80 or more and a hotspot of 90+ is too hot. However if it works for you then stick to it.
    That's about what mine are at. Low to mid 70's ambient, hot spots 87 to 89 at most.

    Humidity is in the 70's most of the time.

    It is okay to use pine bedding for snakes.
    It is okay to feed live food to snakes.
