Hi. We mated our male with my friend's female 31 days ago and sure enough, she is right now laying the eggs after a long day of digging. We have everything prepared as far as incubation goes. We're using a constant substrate temp of 28 C and we are keeping the substrate wet enough so it will clump but dry enough that you can't squeeze any water from it.

Alright here is my question. What should the relative humidity be in the incubation chamber? Because of the type of incubator we are using, I feel that humidity might be an issue because I've read about eggs molding. I just haven't come across anything on the subject.
