Humidity Box?

D41LYBR34D Aug 29, 2004 02:01 AM

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone uses a humidity box for their corn(s). I haven't ever done so before and my snakes don't have any trouble shedding, but I'm making them a huge new display cage and it has extra room in the basement-hide so...I was just wondering if it's a perk that the snakes will enjoy or will they just ignore it?

1.2 corns (normal, anery striped, creamsicle)
0.2 ball pythons
0.1 Cal. king
0.1 Columbian boa
0.2 jungle carpet pythons
2.0 Amazon tree boas
1.1 dumeril's boas

3 of my snakes get them, but only because the humidity is low in the type of cages they are in. The snakes always use them when they're close to shedding, but not usually any other time.

If yours never have problems shedding, I doubt that they would make use of the humid hide. Though, my vet has said that the greater variety of areas the snake has to choose from be it warm/cold/dry/moist, the healthier they are going to be.
