hi all, I've just recently got my first snake, but I'm having a humidity problem it's currently on 65% which I believe is a little too high, the temps are fine and he has a small water dish in the corner of the cool end, he is in a wooden terrarium with a glass top and glass window at the front, with vents at either end, I'm just worried that it might cause him some health problems, or am I just doing what all newbies do and worrying to much
thanks |

| The humidity here varies quite a bit, never had issues with my corns though. I don't think they are too picky ^^ |

| The aspen is in my room, in fact it's near my rad so will be bone dry, I took the hydrometer from my beardies viv just to check my room humidity, and that is showing 55% just can't see why it's so high in his terraium it's almost at 70% now |
