Dry hatching Method.

I was just wondering how the dry hatching worked. Could anyone give me their success, temperature, and humidity for this.

I know the practice but have yet to be able to try it because the humidity in my house stays to high. It's where you have humidity about 30 to 35% until day 18 of incubation and then you raise the humidity up to 55% Temp stays same 99.5 everything else is same as regular incubation.
I was hoping to try it this time i have 6 eggs in my incubator but checked it earlier today only on day 3 no water in my incubator and it's reading 50% humidity. I live in washington state, to moist of a state for dry hatch i guess.

Yeah. Well it's 54 in my house, but I was thinking about doing it.
