I've been doing mine with humidity in the incubator around 35-45%, they seem to do well like that. Hatch time the humidity goes up to about 50%, but more won't hurt.

I have a cabinet incubator and run mine at the start 55-60 and then for hatching around 70. Ive had 90-100% hatch rates with my eggs

I do it the same way for the most part... 40-55% to start then 65-70 during hatch.

I usually run mine high like that, but everything is sticky this year for some reason. The drier settings have made mine hatch better. You just have to play with it till you figure it out, but at least 50% for hatching is almost a must....though some of mine have hatched in the incubator @ 35-40%
