Hi guys,

I'm toying with the idea of getting a hygrometer (I know corns don't need a specific humidity but I wanted to make sure when he's shedding I can increase it sufficiently with moss etc)...

But where do you measure humidity from? It's not from the substrate is it? And where along the heat gradient should it be?

Cheers

Neil

The moss wont increase the whole vivs humidity anyway, but if you still want to get one thats fine. You can take the measurment from the snakes level but it doesnt have to be on the substrate.

Because the moss wont make the whole viv humid, you want it near or in the shedding box instead of somewhere specificaly on the heat gradient.
