Next to the water bowl "humidity" will always be their favorite place while in shed.......Typically, depending on husbandry offered......

Nice, healthy looking L. nelsoni.

No I don't use lights when all my snakes shed I always bump the humidity up but I didn't think snakes needed any lights besides normal room light

Kings don't need light....I was just thinking that you were. Lights dry the air....

How do you "bump up the humidity?"

Why don't you offer a humidity gradient so that humidity is always an option for them to choose?
