Humidity bin:

Get a plastic container. Any plastic container will do as long as the snake can fit on the bottom of it. Put moist sphagnum moss in the bottom and keep it moist. You can buy the moss at most garden centers, they sell it for plants. When the container gets soiled change the moss out. Check the humidity bin everyday to make sure it is clean and moist. You need to do this, soaking isn't enough if she lives where humidity is 25%. You should still spray the cage 2 or 3 times a day even if you make the bin.



How are you checking those temperatures? Are those your daytime temperatures you gave or nightime temperatures? Please make sure there is some choices about where to be, that are between the 75-78 and 88-92 area. Most of the time the snake should be between those two temps, and should have choices of places that are different temps within that range. Is your snake a colombian?



Good luck.





>>The cage works great she loves it.....There are 2 hides and a water dish....humidity is bad like 25%.....I soak her during shed to aid in that help.....THe hottest point is around 88-92 and the coolest is loike 75-78 she always moves back and forth and explores her big cage......the cage is heated with 2 250w infared bulbs hanging safely from the ceiluing and the temps are always perfect....if she wants belly heat she can climb on top of the hide....there is electrical tape on top of the hide which is heated up by the heat lamps which provieds a nice 90 degree basking site...she never goes up there thou she prefers to go in the hide where its about 88 but most of the time shell sit in the cool hide unless shes shedding or just ate....I was told by some people that As long as I soak her and she sheds good that theres no need to worry but I wish I could get humidity good.....so if I make a humidity box shell always use it when shes shedding and shel;l shed in one peice?? How do I make one

>>thanks alot
