this is something i've thought about, but always dismissed it, i guess incorrectly thinking "drinking water is essential for life"... if if it's only a little.



while I provide humid boxes for certain species during shed already, I think i'm going to give my entire collection a humid box (i'll use old nesting boxes since I have a ton and will no longer use them for nesting after lessons learned this year).



I guess it's just more of the pet shop husbandry that is recycled over and over. "every snake needs a bowl of water big enough for them to soak in, provided at all times"... apparetly not.



i'll still leave the water bowls in the cages... maybe on top of the humid boxes.



the more you know...
