    If whatever you use to gauge your humidity got wet, that could be why you saw those readings. And I second the difficulty of getting humidity that high. I'd kill to have a tub with those readings.

    But back the the snake. In the wild, they do encounter humidity close to that, albeit for a short amount of time. This is pulled from USA today, in a "come to Africa for your next vacation" article.

    "...From October through March, humidity levels are relatively low, ranging anywhere from 54 to 85 percent. The high end of this scale occurs in March with the beginning of the winter months. The rest of the year experiences humidity levels from 60 to 91 percent. July is the most humid (67 to 91 percent)...."

    So biologically, they are able to tolerate much higher levels than most people realize, even though it is not ideal. So just keep a watchful eye on her, and keep a look out for any other symptoms.

    Good luck! I hope this helps.
