Well, in certain cases, even desert lizards need to be hydrated. The first thing I did after they arrived in the mail was to soak my DIs because all reptiles are at risk for dehydration when shipped, and if they are too stressed to eat or drink right away, they become dehydrated and can become impacted as a result. While lizards in the wild rarely have this problem, it is more common in captive desert reptiles. I mist if they start to look a little more wrinkled than usual. It won't kill them, and they do get rained on sometimes in the wild.
