:I have 5 boas, 1 albino burm and 2 snow corns... I'm currently haveing problems with the humidity level of the tanks. I keep them in aquarium style tanks with the tuff top style lids (screen/mesh) when the humidity levels outside drop... the tanks drop to 10% humidity... YIKES! I've got a humidifier running constantly, heat lamps directly on the water dishes... and still am having problems maintaining the humidity.... anyone have some tips?


Sorry hit the wrong button. The open top of your tanks allows humidity to escape into the dry air above. Take foil and close off half of the opening. Watch you heat levels close. A humidity box with damp moss under the area of the foil will also provide add moisture. I hope this helps. Dann
