Corns are really easy Humidity isnt a big facter I keep the temps at 83-85 on the warm side, and a few degrees cooler on the cool side. With very little night time drop.

Miami corns are my favourite, I have a friend who has a nice, clean one.

Corn snakes often come from very arid places so you dont need to try and raise humidity at all. The same goes for during shed mine shed perfect wit no added humidity.

I commend you for researching these snakes before going out and getting one, Dexter! You're going to make a great snake-keeper, I'm sure, with this level of care.

The average house humidity is about 30%, and corns do well in that. Their requirements are really pretty easy.
