Humidity?

What is the humidity supposed to be at for a corn snake???? I've looked at atleast 10 caresheets and I can't find one that says anything about humidity!

keep them at around 40-50 and they'll be fine. A bit higher when they are in shed.

Just remember not too high since it can cause RI

Corns do not require anything in the way of humidity, although 40-50 is nice, even for humans. Corns range from swampy areas with 100% humidity to arid areas of the eastern US that only get about 10%. They are amazingly adaptable.

in my corns cage i do dont worry about humidity at all. the humidity that you have in your house will be fine.

The humidity in my viv ranges from anywhere between 40 and 70%.

Not sure if thats good or bad, but my corn doesn't seem to mind.

wow, a snake that I don't have to worry about the humidity? I should have gotten into corns a long time ago!!!

haha... they are very hardy. really humidity isn't a concern until a few problems can arise. If it's too dry, there could be shedding problems (small tiny flakes, some still attached to snakes's skin) to too wet (more serious Respiratory Infections). As suggested 40-50 is good, however, I personally prefer 35-45.
