I have looked all over for Black Milksnake humidity requirements

But can't seem to find a figure. The best I have got so far is that they need high humidity. Does anyone who keeps or breeds black milksnakes know the humidity percentage they need?

I don't think mexican blacks need very high humidity, I thought they needed it relatively low actually, around 40 % ... Could be wrong though

All I know about their habitat so far is that temperatures should be low, 65-80F. And that they come from high altitude mountainous regions of panama and costa rica.

@Smy, OP is asking about black milkshakes, not MBKs.

I would probably aim for something similar to a CRB/BRB set up, maybe a little less humid?
