proper humidity

jsmusmc Dec 06, 2007 11:32 AM

What is the best way to keep cages at the right humidity? Ive seen fog misters for sale at the pet shops. are those a good idea? Also ive read that you need to have a period for the cage to dry out so harmful bacteria will not form. Also can u have a atb and gtp in the smame cage or will they fight?

I really good way I have found to keep a proper level of humidity is too have real plants in your enclosure. And to mist you enclosure atleast twice a day. Foggers to me are a waste of money

I use a weed sprayer and mist once a day with no problems. I've done this for years.
Live plants also help.
No you cant keep a GTP and a ATB in the same cage...well you shouldnt.
