are hydrometers an absolute must... i have read on various caresheets humidity needs to be about 50-60%,hence supplying moist hide or misting.. n yes still contemplating a royal despite everything i have read n heard n prolly freaked meself out with.

i dont use one as such, room humidity in this country is fine..
i have a dial thing...but i got a tip of GP once that she was using hers to "monitor" any drastic changes in levels.
they are not accurate , but would still show if something was up...
but...
i do have a moss box in my viv all the time
some do some dont, is just my own preferences...

cool ok well ill defo be having a 24/7 moss hide in there as they need it more than me corn.. cant believe im still gonna get one but all goes well shall be ordering next week.. freak the kids out when they get back off hols...lol
I have one in each of my vivs. depending on your heat source the viv humidity will differ. I keep a moss hide in viv as well. and keep a check on humidity. But for example. humidity in my room at the minute is only 36%. as WS said even if you only have a dail one you can monitor any big changes. I think most people have noticed that the dial ones seem to be 5-10% out. So where the dial says 55% it could really be 45%-50%. Digital ones are only around £8.

yus already have digital thermometers in both fauns so may aswell look into hydrometer.. which will prolly be another triple8 purchase.just want to make sure initial set up is right ..next thing on the list is to get viv stack right size.. i know its all dependant on how big ya snake gets but from research 3-4 ft vivs are ample enough.. for both corn and royal.
net petshop.. ok cool.. have been doing some majour net hunting for cheaper shops to buy from, i know triple 8 are bloody good but some bits are defo pricey... cheers remmy :O) where abouts in the faun would you put the hydro probe???
