hello all,
my humidity leveel in the viv is around 55-60% the odd time it will drop below 55%, but i also have a damp hide in, i read on the care sheet on this forum that it needs to be around 50%-60%, but the only thing tha confused me is i went into a petshop and on the tank it has ionfo about the species they are selling and on the royal python they said it needs to be 60%-80%. am i right leaving it the way it is with the damp hide in the cool end and a normal hide in the warm end. i do see him moving about between hide. and he has not missed a feed yet.
