    yes a carpet would die in those conditions... gtp will tolerate a higher humidity but doesnt need 95% humidity. if the enclosure is setup correctly it has/can be done. the problem is stagnant air not humidity or temp.

    I dont keep GTP's but there seems to be shift away from high humidity with keeping GTP's in the US herp scene. Listen to this it's Terry Phillip talking on Morelia python radio, about how he keeps his animals. Terry Phillip talks everything Morelia 01/14 by Moreliapythonradio | Blog Talk Radio

    Im not sure just how bad the neuro would be but i imagine it would be terrible. Some things just arnt worth producing or dabbling with.
    Gtps are amazing just as they are, i would hate to see them being screwed up with jag genes

    Ethics? We put a snake in a wooden box, keep and breed them for our enjoyment. Is that ethical?
