The breeder didn't say that it helped maintain his humidity, he said that if one could maintain the right humidity there were no problems with cage carpet. To me that screams that new owners are going to have difficulties, because they won't have the experience the breeder has that makes reptile carpet work for him. That's more making sure that the petstore educates the buyer about the snake, though.

This rosie is probably about 10-12 inches, so not much of a baby. We're inland southern california, and it can get pretty dry around here too. At the moment, the humidity gauge in our kitchen is reading 30%.

Thank you very much for the novel, it answered all of my questions in an excellent manner Much, much appreciated!
