you'll find that normal humidity is fine and a moss hide is not always needed. so you don't need to worry about it tp much unless of course your royal is shedding badly on a regular basis. to do what you need to maintain a 60% is more likely un settling to the snake, as it is frequently disturbed. so in fact although you think the misting is good, it can also have a negative effect.

I'm with her, I never spray. May put a moist hide in if remember. |

As far as I understand it, unless a royal's shedding, normal humidity ie the same humidity you'd have in your living room, is fine. If the snake is shedding then the moss hide is a good idea - especially if the snake will spend some time in it.
Other people may have different ideas? |
