With the exception of a very few snakes, like BRBs and maybe GTPs, ambient humidity levels are perfectly fine for most snakes as long as they’re properly hydrated and have access to fresh water. My current humidity is about 35%. Three of my snakes, an olive python, scrub python, and a bullsnake have all had perfect sheds in the last 2 weeks. My humidity typically ranges from 35-65% depending on the season. My snakes have never had RIs or bad sheds. I use Reptichip as well and if I see one of the snakes prepping to shed I might dump a cup or two of water into the substrate and mix it around the enclosure floor. That’ll hold the humidity longer than if you’re just misting the enclosure. Other than that I normally don’t concern myself with humidity at all.
