    He probably doesn't have to worry about humidity because his humidity in the enclosures is within parameters without him doing anything.

    My natural humidity here in Florida is often higher than even recommended. Someone in a dry MidWest state may have major issues without taking particular care with their enclosures.

    People who use tubs and racks often have no issues. People using tanks with screen and lamps have to be more careful.
    I'd even reach and say as a species that's inclined to a sub-Saharan climate with "rainy seasons" and wild feeding schedules that coincide with those due to prey breeding periods (IIRC) the humidity may make them think it's "rainy season" to keep their appetite up as well. Thus why low humidity is seen to sometimes tie into food refusal or fasting.
