just got a hydrometer and it reads usually from 65%-70%
ive heard that for a clifornian king snake it should be between 40% and 60%
It has been quite humid weather wise this past week but is there any way to reduce humidity for the mean time?
im a little worried |

| Is it a dial or digital one? Dials are well known for being inaccurate. Do decrease humidity move the water bowl further away from the heat source and increase ventilation. |

| If it stays high all the time you could but extra vents in the viv to help with the ventilation. |
