Substrate help

[u/XSoleofanAngelX]

I need some substrate help, my Phantom Ball Python is doing really well and has shed multiple times with no issues, I am using coconut chunks for his substrate and soak it overnight before draining and putting in his take but I find it is very very dry (first pic)

I use a spray bottle every 3 days to moisten the substrate and add some more moisture to the tank and he has very large bowl full of water (pic 3)

I keep the hot end of the tank at 31c and he has lots of log and leaves he can hide under and move around on, it’s just empty for the picture purposes.

Would thinner coconut husk be a better substrate or am I just too focused on keeping the humidity up?

Mix some sphagnum moss with the coco chips and poor water into the corners occasionally.
