Humidity drops very quickly and you can't know for sure if its correct if you have no way to measure its accumluation within the tank. Humidity also affects growth/activity/appetite/hydration/and ease of shedding. It is a must for these tropical frogs. Just because the substrate is moist doesn't mean that the air within the enclosure is moist enough. Moisture in the air helps them keep hydrated. I don't want to be pushy, but assuming that its right doesn't make it so. I'm just trying to help. I don't want you to feel offended.
I always give them a mist when I do the watering, so it should be fine! I've never found them to actually work, I have 1 temperature thing, I stick it in the tanks occasionally to make sure they are all ok. Might explain why my other little one has been funny the last couple of days, I always leave his lid off, if it gets too humid he spends the whole day and night smacking his head against the side. >_< Guess the humidity has been escaping, he'll get an extra mist every night before bed now! I can guarantee what will happen if I get a humidity measure, it will fall out and end up somewhere on my bedroom floor lol! That's where the thermometer is most of the time...

No, each frog is in individual tanks, got 2 that share a heat mat, and the three above have 2 heat mats, one on each side of Princess. but I'm always swapping them about, sometimes all 3 have one, other times I take one away. It seems to be working at the moment, the temps seem to be ok!
