Re: Hello from Alaska
For the temperatures, I'll double check, but I think the room stays closer to the 80 degree side of things. If it starts cooling down, I turn on a couple more heat lamps and it seems to take care of things.
As for the humidity, I do both hand spraying and use of mister/sprayer regularly. I always make sure the water has set for a while in the room to warm up before spraying or putting in one of the misters. I also have moss which I regularly soak. This has been working pretty well and I've only had a couple bad sheds with the snakes. Most of the time I go to clean the cage and find a nice, neat rolled up shed under one of the hides.
Tiki (ball python) I've had about 4 years, Striker (some kind of boa) about 2 and Pastel (ball python) about 1. They all get regular vet checks about once a year and have always received a good health report from the vet.
