Ball pythons humidity too high-ranking?
Is there a point when the humidity in a BP's tank is too elevated? My tank stays around 85-90 degrees on the warm side and 75-80 degree on the cool side, but the humidity generally stays around 80% or higher. Is this too high? Can it impair my snakes?
Answers: humidity should really be 60-65% The problems with keeping the overall environment damp leads to conditions such as blister disease where on earth in the skin, usually of the belly, become covered with blisters, leading to bacterial infections of the skin, which in turn lead to overall health problems, it can also lead to R.I.
ball pythons should be given a humid conceal though where they can retreat if hey need complex humidity (e.g when shedding).
Hello, You need provide your Royal Python with an ambient air warmth of 27-29C (80-85F) throughout the enclosure with a basking spot of 32.5C (90F) during the daytime. At night, allow the ambient air temperature to drop down to no lower than 23-24C (73-75F), near a basking area of 27C (80F). No additional UV lighting is required for your Royal Python. You can profess the temperatures by using either a basking light with a guard or a heat mat, a thermostat should control both these. The humidity should br 60-65%.
Good Luck.
