A great way to up the RH factor is to use aspen bedding. This is assuming you have not done so already. If not, after placing the aspen beeding in the tank try pouring small amounts of water directly into the aspen in the warmer spots of the tank. this should help with the humidity. As for the humidifier...I've never heard of that before. In fact it sounds like an answer you'd get from Pet Smart (thats smart a** for dumb answer) . I could be wrong, but seeing how lower humidity can cause an infection, I dont think I am. Also for the time being... a little over 3 months is not TOO bad for refusing food. In fact...if its a boy, tis' the season. try raising his temp up to 95.If you get no results over the next few weeks and his health seems to worsen got to an EXOTIC PETS vet (not Pet Smart) whom can run test to see if there is and what is the problem. He should also be able to force feed if it comes to it.This is a last resort mind you. Ball Pythons are the worst finicky eaters there are out there and can go what seems forever without food. However hydration is vital while he is in what we are hoping is just a fasting. Keep up with the "wet hole" as snakes get hydration from 3 ways. Food, drinking directly, and through absorption from air (not too much) and skin contact.
