James and Ernestine seemed to go off feed just when the dry winter air hit. I tried misting the tank, and the humidity wouldn't go above 20-30% range. We put a humidifier in the house and the humidity in their tank is back in the 40-50% range, and they apparently feel much better.:D Little piggies are eating heartily again.

I must say, all of us who inhabit the house are much happier with the humidifier. :) And, never having had a hygrometer before having snakes, I never believed that a little one that claimed to restore humidity to 1500sq ft. really did. Our humidifier is in our daughter's room, and James and Ernestine are in the kitchen, opposite ends of the house. I am happy that they are eating well again, and will post new pics of them soon.
