Do you have to hydrate or wet substrate for ball python?

Ya it’s insane! Like literally. I can see if you’re neglecting your animals. No need to attack me over something I may be doing different then you. It’s what works for me. I’m keeping a consistent 60-70% humidity and I even bumped it up to 80% since he’s in shed. Someone even was attacking me on having a log/stick in my tank…. They were like you shouldn’t have that in there. Ball pythons don’t climb. Like first off it’s not for climbing.. it’s not even tall. It’s just something to add for clutter as well as to help get the shed off. I heard to add things like that so they can rub themselves up against it to help take skin off. I can definitely tell the difference between this forum and facebooks. They keep saying to keep 70-80% humidity while this forum is 50-60% that I’ve noticed.

Yea it's a little silly. Overtime I think some of those groups become echo chambers, basically they drive away anyone with a different opinion. I like to encourage people to get their information from multiple sources, so of course read what we say here, but check out other forums, care guides, etc etc. I think what happens with groups like you found are those guys show up there, get some advice, and never look anywhere else. So to them, there's one way to keep a BP and if you do it some other way you're neglecting your animals.

Silly but I get how it happens.
