As I mentioned in the dumerils forum, and as someone mentioned here already...dumerils do not like high humidity, and they do live in semi-arid regions. For future reference...when you see a large deviation between care sheets (for example one person saying 80% and another 50%) that usually means that there are inaccuracies. I would recommend that rather than guessing in the future that you ask a lot of people experienced with the species. I wouldn't go much higher than 60% humidity, and do not leave the substrate moist. While she is a hatchling you can offere her a humidity box, so she can move in and out of humid regions.
