Certain times of year when humidity is low - yes.
Or soak in very shallow water for 5 minutes periodically to hydrate the snake. Either way works.
See below: Yeah, a plastic shoebox. Fill with sphagnum moss (best moss is New Zealand shpagnum - doesn't smell like moss).
I use a hole saw about 2" in diameter and cut a hole in the side of the box. Easy, works. Place box over a heat pad partially.
Milks live underground where they don't dry out. They dry out in cages when humidity is low. Milks have thin skin compared to, say, gophersnakes, rattlesnakes, cornsnakes, etc. ----- Mark
