If I were in your place, I'd try boosting the humidity some more, provide a shallow soaking dish if they don't already have one, and keep the substrate in their hide moist.

An ideal indoor setup provides a range (albeit on a small scale) of conditions: temperature gradient, light and shade, humidity variations (a hide is easier to keep moist). That way they can self-regulate a little better.
