I have been having issues with my humidity since I got my first ball python on Monday. Just finished following these directions for the screen top on my 10 gal to see if that helps at all. Once he outgrows his baby tank, I'm planning on investing in a rack anyway, for ease of use and expansion purposes, so I'm hoping to avoid spending money on a reptifogger or other screen-top tank methods. Hopefully, this will be my easy and cheap solution for the time being. Thanks so much for the tutorial. I will post my results after I let the humidity and temps settle again.

Currently, I've been misting every 3 hours or so (except for overnight) to keep humidity between 50-60%. Overnight it has been dropping down to 30-40%. We'll see if this changes that!
