What should the humidity bee in a leopard gecko aquarium type container?

Question

I have a baby leopard gecko and I was wondering what the humidity level should be.

Answer 1

As low as possible, but with a small container for them to use while shedding that has higher humidity (put moss or wet paper towels in the bottom of it)

Answer 2

humidity can be quite low. Standard room humidity is just fine. They like a dry cage to an extent. 50% to 90% relitve is usuall room humidity they are fine at that. They come from the higher desert grasslands of Pakistan and Afganistan where relitive humidity is usually lower. Make sure to have a good moist hide. I use a butter bowl and lid with a hole in the side about 1.5 inches up the side. It holds moisture well. I have used vermiculite,spangum moss,potting soil and paper towel. I have settled to a substance called Eco-earth it is a ground coconut fibre that looks like dirt. It holds moisture very very well. There are other brands of the same stuff called differnt things.

Answer 3

Room temperature humidity is fine but provide a humidity box in your leopard geckos cage as they need the extra humidity when shedding
