unexpected

If you are going to do maternal I would add a substrate to the cage that will hold humidity better than newspaper.

Hi there!
I am in the same boat with my possible parthenogenic snake "Mila"
This is a first for me too & was worried she was too skinny on the tail end...I do need to get a better t -mometer & hygrometer but all seems well on that end.
So I will be checking back to see if anyone gives any good pointers.

Thanks,

Well, no pointers I see....I did get the accurite & its showing 20% difference in humidity levels, I don't get it its showing 59% & it feels humid as hell in there!! Im spraying all day (not the eggs)
Dusty...how's everything coming along for you??

Shari, what's showing a 20% difference?

[sharilynn]

The dial hygrometer is showing 80% & the digital is showing 59% & it feels so humid in there, feels more humid than 59%, but then again I don't have a built in hygrometer so - who know's.. I worry much more now that she's on eggs.

I got it up to 65%, & I can probably keep it there if I sit & spray all nite long .. Did that guy on Man vs. Wild just drink his own pee???? I'm sorry I got caught off guard by that Anyway I do trust the accu-rite, I just thought it felt pretty darn humid in there.
