RI/Humidity level ?

TAloha19 Mar 12, 2004 12:23 PM

Can Respiratory Infections be caused by too LITTLE humidity or TOO much humidity.

Reason I ask is because my BP had RI symptoms. I quickly bumped up the heat and they went away. I put in a new humid hide because she wouldn't use the other one. This one is a terra cotta pot turned upside down with moise sphagnum moss in it. She loved it and spent ALL day in it. Then, her symptoms started to come back.
I was told I could take her moist hide out because she does soak in her water dish (She doesn't have mites). I'm just getting a little confused over here. lol. Thanks for any advice.
