Sponge is another alternative. I microwave my wet sponge before putting it into the incubator to cut down on bio-stuff (sorry for the techno-speak).

okay, I tried that too (not the microwave) but had two sponges in there. Got it up like 2% more but not enough

Thank you all for helping. My incubator is for 56 eggs. It was the only available option at the time so thats all I could buy. I have no need to hatch 56 eggs and there are only two eggs in there rn. I think maybe the lack of there being the right amount of eggs made it hard to reach the right humidity. I got a NR 360 recently for quail eggs though. The quail eggs should be here any day now, so I didn't want to fill up the incubator and it be in use when the quail eggs arrive. But I think thats just what Ill have to do. So Ive got them in the NR now and they are at 65% humidity. So all good here. Thank you again!

I had luck raising the humidity with a wire triangle holding up a cloth sitting in a water tub, wick effect

Oh yeah thats a good idea, I got a new incubator now that works just fine. My other one was just too big and didn't seal well enough. NR 360 works great. Hatching quail rn!
