humide hides

[Laporte]

where do you prefer to keep them?

 

[WilliamTheLeopardGecko]

Cold side.

 

[FrenzyMode]

Cold side also.

 

[SC Geckos]

On the warm side for a couple reasons.
#1 You get better humidity in the hide when placed over the heat source.
#2 The moisture drys up faster, which *may help prevent* any potential bacteria growth if the material in the hide stays wet for to long.

Not sure which to choose. I keep mine in the middle so half is hot-warm and half is cool-warm - then the gecko can choose where to lay within the box

 

[Russellm0704]

Definitely on the warm side.

 

[Laporte]

Good opinions, I like them

To me gradient means gradual, in my opinion in doesn't make any sense to have one side at 90 and the other at 75, (lets just say). So half of my uth gets a 15w bulb and then I put a hide in each space (which I can still accomplish in a 10 gallon but that's in a totally different thread). Just curious as to what people are doing with their humide hides is all I am
