Hello,
I just set up my (awesome) new boaphile cage for my RTB. She arrives tomorrow morning (she's being shipped from my mother's house). Unfortunately, the cage is WAY too humid. The gauge is currently reading at 99%!!! How?! I've never had a problem with too much humidity. It's always been the opposite problem.
I am using a mixture of aspen and cypress bedding, and she has a water bowl large enough to soak in (she's over 6 ft). Is the substrate a problem? Maybe it retains too much moisture? If so, I'm kinda freaking out because I don't have anything else and she'll be here soon! No way can I put her in a cage with that much humidity. If I drill some holes in the top, will that help? I don't want to put holes in my brand new cage if it won't significantly decrease the moisture levels.
Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated.
