RE: Is a Humid Hide essential for Milks?

I've got a pretty big water bowl for King, a hide in the warm area (just put in a mac and cheese box to give him a little more security). He's had issues with shed....he's been in shed for probably the past week now without losing any significant part of his old skin, only a few inches of the top of him near his head. We've got Aspen bedding for him, and I took the aspen that the water bowl was on so he can't curl up under his bowl like he was prone to do.
I'm in MA, so the air is really dry during the winter and certainly not helped by the central heat. I've read somewhere that misting the bedding may give a little more humidity to the habitat. Any opinions on this?
