Hello,

Well I have a hard time keeping humidity up in my 4ft vision cage. Current set up is two small heat panels set at 83 degrees on one side of the cage. On the other is a small light spot, where I use a 50 watt bulb (92-96 degrees), to get a hot spot. I also have a rubbermaid with moss in it, no lid on it. I use kraft paper for the floor. I mist twice a day and when I go to mist after one of them it is dry again.

My question is does the cage have to have humidity in it or will a humidity box be OK.

I have tried putting a bigger water dish over a heat pad, snake just goes in it, so I take it out. I run a humidifier at night. I cover the back with the plastic stuff for windows. My next step is to cover the front of the cage? Anything I may be missing? Oh ya when I spray, I spray the walls, I heard you do not want to soak the cage.

Thank you again

Jeff
