Can someone advise me about humidity for Cordilus tropidosternum? They come from open forest. I've seen that someone says 40-60% and others 70-80% cause they search umidity in caves.

Temperatures should be 100 degrees on one end and 85 on the other. Humidity should be 40-60 percent during the day, rising up to around 75 at night.
I found this on a caresheet. Out of all the caresheets i found they all said a minmum of 40% up to 60% a couple say higher. They come from the dry savanna so i would think 40% to 60% would be perfect. Hope this helps.

Here's a link of a caresheet that might help, but i believe you have one of the other species. ReptileParadise.com (http://www.reptileparadise.com/cs_cordylusw.htm)

I hope you like them

for now they are very timid and is difficult to see them, belonging as they do basking, and I quietly enter the room, or use a bait like in the pictures
