question on humitity

[All-American-Chick]

i was reading over a article in the sticky about hatching and ran across this and im a bit confussed
the 58-60% humitity and then it says 84-86 degrees.what is that?because earlier it stated to keep the temp at 99-100 degrees.

also does one need to change temp on the last 3 days of incubation or just the humitity?
thank you

WHAT I READ
Humidity in the incubator varies with the different makes and models of the incubator. Read
your manual for the specific setup for your incubator. Most incubators recommend 58-60% or
84-86 degrees between setting the eggs and 3 days prior to hatching. Then you would increase
to 65% during the hatching process.

My manual says for the first 17 days, 40-50% humidity, and days 18-21 65%. Temp should be kept even at 99.5F.
