you can put moss in all her hides if you want which means that she always has access to them,
the warm is probably better if you are just putting one in though but you will need to keep moistening it up though 
hope she sheds ok for you |

Hope she sheds ok.Just put some moss into Ruby's and she went in it and shed right in front of me about 10 minutes ago. Great to watch.
I had mine at the cold end and it steamed up nicely if that helps any.
Used a take away tub with a square cut out of the lid. Worked a treat.

| We use one in the same way Rich for our leopard gecko and we have that in the cool end, stays moist for longer, although as mentioned above, I can't see any harm in having one at each end, give your snake the option!? |

i personally replace the warm AND cool hides with damp hides if i have a snake that needs a temporary increase in humidity to shed.....they don't have to be fancy shop-bought or expensive hides, just an appropriately sized margerine/ice cream/or similar tub with a hole cut out for access is all that's really required  |
