RE: Is a Humid Hide essential for Milks?

I never was an advocate of humid hides in my cages. I never had any snakes with problems as long as a suitable size water bowl was present. However, I have juvie bull having some shed problems and I attribute it to the dryer winter conditions in the house due to central heat. So, I would say it depends and at most can't hurt. If the snake in question is shedding fine without it, so be it. If not, increase the size of the water bowl or at least provide a humid hide during shed.
