Thanks for that. I like Doug D.'s comments. They just make sense. I have heard a lot of "stuff" about reptiles in general that simply defies common sense. I guess this is one case.
So misting is kinda useless, and soaking is only minimally effective at best for treating dehydration, at least in full desert species. Its better to get the fluid to the inside if you have a dehydrated lizard. So while the water doesn't bead on my DIs, the surface of their scales are wet, and while that might raise the humidity (which is bad), it doesn't do much to hydrate them, right?
