Ive got a double decker cage, basically two 4ft visions stacked and bolted together with a opening to get from one to the other. This coming winter I dont want to spend half my day misting the cages just to get a decent 50 percent humidity level.
Any suggestions? Perhaps a ultrasonic fogger, they always look really neat but dont know if it would do the job..Thanks ahead..

And yes my boa is spoiled but I only have the one and she is strictly a pet..

I use the cool mist humidifiers with at least a two gal tank (don't have to fill them as often). I only use water run through a reverse osmosis filter to keep from gunking up the system with sediments and deposits. I highly recommend spending the money on one with a built in humidistat. You can set the humidity at 50-60% and avoid possible mold problems caused by condensation on a cold wall or floor.

if you don't get the cool mist then you have to deal with replacements wicks and filters and that stuff, so cool mist is the way to go. I got one with a humidistat too, that's great, and it has a 3 gallon capacity which works really great for me because I only have to fill it every now and then. I use Brita water in it and the maintenance is almost nothing. Mine is a Hunter "care free" Humidifier Plus. It was much cheaper on eBay than anywhere else. I had a little problem and the company replaced the whole unit without my having to ship it back to them! I loved that. They did that even though I bought it from an eBay seller too. I would recommend them to anyone, and if I need another I will buy another Hunter.

That said, I have found that no matter how humid the room is you might still have to spray snakes if you use lamps. Lamps dry the air a lot. It is a LOT easier to keep proper humidity with the humidifier though.
