You really should read the threads below this first.



This same issue and concerns were talked about no less than a few days ago and is just being repeated again.



A desert snake is no different from any other.. The person who told you it needs less humidty because it came from an arid region does not know much about snakes or husbandry.





First of all snakes are fosssorial most of their entire lives. So they are underground. In a desert area they will seek humidity levels far greater than that.





Also if you do read FR's posts here you will see that they move from humid to wet and constantly changing.. so what that means if put a humid box in the cage and offer it the choices of temps and humidity as much as possible..



there are a number of ways to do this. Just read more below of FR's post and try and absorb as much of that as possible.
