55% to 60% is good for the first 25 days in the incubator, 75% to 85% is good in the hatcher.

For being a “novice“, that is an excellent pic. I am a “novice“ as well, but I tell you, that pic helped me so much! Thank you fellow “novice”! : )Have you candled them? I would think that if their air cell looks like this, you *might* be okay, but I'm a novice at incubating eggs.
Upon further review and six years later I have found that 45% for incubating and 55% for the hatcher works best for me now.
If you want to experiment weigh the eggs before you set and weekly trying to have a 13 to 15% weight loss by the time they go into the hatcher,

I always incubate at 75% humidity and 100 degrees and I’ve only had problems with one egg not hatching. Turns out he was malpositioned.
