My ambient humidity is usually 40-50%. My bulls and carpets rarely hide but I think the carpets make better display snakes.

My carpets hide all the time! I actually caught them hanging out last night when I got home but as soon as I turned the light on they went under their hides. You keep yours in a dim lit room?

My carpets are in a fairly well lit room phassin. They're not out as much during the day as my bulls but they're perched out almost every night unless they're shedding or have just eaten a meal.
