Hi, as you know Ive got a hatchling and his eyes have gone blue/grey. I just wanted to know how do I raise the humidity as its only a small viv I made myself. I have the "viv" on a heat mat about a third maybe less on it to provide the warmth, advice would be appreciated thanks. If it would help there is a pic of some sorts on the post I first put up called my new snake in the photo section. |

Try placing the water dish on top of the heat mat. If thats not enough then try covering some of the vents as well |
