    Wet Hide...

    Hi guys,

    I have some time on my hands these days and it would be nice to have a wet hide for my BP. I have a hard time keeping the humidity up due to having a glass tank. The humidity usually hovers around 46-56% but i think that if i could build a wet hide, my little guy would have a place to go chill when the humidity gets to low.

    What have others done in making a wet hide? I would think that a tuppuware with a moist sponge lining could work. Maybe a wet washcloth could also work... Any ideas, Pictures?!?!

    Thanks

    Sean

    When I used a tank, I used a rubbermaid container (with hole melted in it with a soldering iron) and lined with either damp sphagnum moss or paper towels. Both are easily replaced.

    i cut a whole in a rubbermaid, then burn the outside of it so it is really soft, then i put wet/moist papertowels in it, and replace them every few days. I keep it on the warm side in the winter, and the cool side in the summer (aka when their humidity is low and high)
