From what I understand if you soak your snake for too short of a time it can actually make the skin dryer than it was to begin with.



An option for also is to create a humidity hide in her enclosure. Take a plastic container like the gladware disposables and cut a hole in the side. Fill the container with damp sphagnum moss and it will stay humid in there and maybe you snake will use it.



I've read some people's snakes won't use them but mine seems to love to sit in my humidity hide for at least a little while every night.



Good luck with her!!
