Should i spreay my snakes cage with water?

[SSnyder]

I have a cornsnake and last shed wasn't a full shed it was in peices then i had to help her with some of it left on her. I use a heating lamp so that could dry out the tank because i notice the water dries up fast. Anyone think it would be ok to spray sometimes i use aspen bedding.

You shouldn't need to spray a corn. Just make sure the water dish is large enough for the snake to soak in. You can also put a tupperware box (with a hole cut in) with damp moss inside when shedding time comes around.

yup that's what I'd do, when it comes for shedding time, add a moist hide for it.

What kind of moss should i pick up new to the whole moss thing.

damp paper towels, or any of the moss available at your LFS, just soak it and squeeze it so it's damp...

you dont need to spray for a corn, you can it wont hurt to, however always keep a bowl in there big enough that it can fit its whole body into for drinking and soaking. Aspen is a descent bedding, but for my corn snakes, redtail boas and king snakes i have all of them on a peat moss and sphagnum moss mix it retains moisture incredibly and I'd reccomend switching, itll help quite a bit
