Urarte problems

My 5 month old female veiled has a complete yellow urate and I've been misting more often and gave her a shower as well, was wondering how long it usually takes for them to rehydrate. I've had this problem before and I'm not sure why it happens because I do not change her hydration at all. Sorry for the title of thread phone auto corrected urate. Last time it took about a week to see a bright white urate, is that about right for rehydration
 
There can be a number of causes of dehydration.
A common cause is when their environment is kept too dry.
Veileds require air humidity of between 50-65% to help stay hydrated.
Live plants help keep humidity up.
A dripper provides a readily available drinking source and longer mistings encourage them to drink as well as keeping the humidity levels up.
If they are being kept near blowing air from a heating or air conditioning system or kept too hot, it can lead to dehydration.
Another possible cause of dehydration is internal parasites.

If you cut and paste the questions and post the answers to the questions from

then people can look over your care and see if there if anything that needs to be changed to help your chams live healthy long lives.

The more complete your answers, the better the quality the answers can be.
