Firstly,
I would never put reptile eggs in a hova bator or any top heating incubator. The top heat keeps the air around the egg too warm and dry. Keepers copensate by placing the eggs in a wetter substrate. The eggs are then taking in humidity that is forced on them in the wet substrate instead of the egg doing what it is supposed to do and regulate its own intake. Dont get me wrong, you can hatch reptile eggs in a hova bator. It is just not the best choice.

Anyway, the hunidity at egg level should be in the mid 90's.
