Re: Slightly concerned snake mom
Your humidity is great. Keep the humidity where it is at right now, for the rest of his shed (However long it might take). Technically your hot side humidity is too low, but you should not raise it because:
- You don't want your cool side at 80%
- You gave him a humid hide, and he will use it when he feels the need to
I don't know if he can develop RI from high humidity, but he can develop scale rot.
Right now though, as long as you only keep it at this level for the shed, the humidity is great!!

He did use the hot side moist hide all night, and during the day I've been able to keep the cool side at 70-72%, so I think he'll be ok, even if the hot side humidity is low (fingers crossed)

Good luck!!! Just make sure that the humidity on the cool side goes back down to 60% after his successful* shed.
* If his shed is unsuccessful, keep the humidity high.
