35% is pretty low ambient humidity. Even with the humid hide, I'd try spritzing the cage once or twice a day to at least try and bump it up some. Maybe put a clean, damp sponge on the warm side of the enclosure and change it out each time it dries.


As for moistening the moss in the humid hide, I guess you'll have to play that by ear a bit. Since I don't know the setup, its hard to say how much you'd have to bother the snake in order to take care of it. Maybe you could make a second, identical hide and put it in the cage as well...and then just check and moisten whichever one the snake isn't in.

Whatever you end up doing though, there's no need to soak the snake BEFORE a shed. Doing so can actually end up making the shed more difficult, rather than helping. Wait and see how things go first. Just provide as much humidity as you can, and make sure there is plenty of fresh water for proper hydration.

(We should probably address that humidity issue, but that can wait until after the shed, and for a new thread, if you like. )
