Re: Smelly hide rock. O.o

I think it might actually be this "Zilla Humidifying Spray" that is causing the smell. O.o

That sounds very possible. I don't like that kind of stuff, it seems like they are inventing things you don't really need.
Just use good ol' h2o, 100% natural and 100% humid lol.

Yup, water in a spray bottle is about the extent that you need to go for humidifying ball python enclosures. Get rid of that humidifying spray.

Edit: all of my snakes shed fine, as long as I am diligent at knowing when they are shedding, and boosting the humidity accordingly.

I was suspicious of that stuff, but the woman ended up using it a little bit before we had agreed on anything. With the little bit that was used on her, it seems to have made her skin a little healthier, but that smell is just weird.

We haven't been using it a lot and I've already gone back to using water.

Thanks.

i looked that up and the main ingredient is aloe vera, depending on where they get it from, aloe can smell pretty weird
