im getting my first yellow head retic from bob should i keep there humidity about 70% and 88 degrees on the warm side i have burms but iv heard that retics are more difficult is this true

I just bought my 3rd yellowhead. You can pretty much keep them the same as your burms. I keep mine at a temp of 90 on the hot side, and an ambient of 82. I mist them about 3 times a week, but they have also done well at normal air humidity (I live in San Diego and the humidity rarely gets very low). I find them to be more tolerable of husbandry mistakes than burms, not that I make many mistakes with them. Retics are awesome, and addictive. Good luck
