How should the humidity be for yellow anacondas?
I have heard some say really high, like in the 90`s and others say it should be low.
What do you think?
Thanks Jonas

` I never let my humidity drop below 65%. It is often at 90%. I measure it 6 inches above floor level. If you keep their soaking water over a hot spot in the floor, and you don't have top vents or other leaks, you'll have plenty of humidity. Mine seem to like their water at 78 to 82 degrees.
` Years ago, when I had Ball Pythons only, I had the usual shedding, and fasting problems. I kept them at less humidity than the Anacondas. Now, I have one old Ball Python left, living in the Anaconda environment. He does a perfect one-piece shed, every time. He is also the most aggressive eater I have. I use bone-dry newspaper for substrate. It works better if the humidity is in the atmosphere, not the substrate.
