Dry Hatch Method

NR 360
It’s my first time hatching eggs + using dry hatch method. I currently have the humidity at 22% and it hasn’t changed for a few hours. I have a dehumidifier in the room and I don’t know if it has much of an effect or not.
Should I worry about the humidity spiking or plummeting while I’m away if there’s a dehumidifier in the room?

That's a bit low, imo, I'd turn off the dehumidifier.

What humidity do you recommend?

I recommend you get a dial humidity reader, they read more true than digital. My digital may say 22%, a dial one may read 50% which is best. And I dry hatch.

What humidity do you recommend?

I'd use 30-40% humidity, it won't hurt them to be at 22% but it may preemptively hrow the air cell.
