Second ever hatch, is 58% Humidity too high to set?

[sethsleader]

Ive got a white orp running with my 3 hybreds and an influx of eggs so I thought that Id give their eggs a go.

Ive got the bator running at 99.5 one trough filled but humidity is running at 58% is it too high to set?

I'm no expert (I've only hatched one set of eggs) but I'm pretty sure that is way too high for the first 18 days. I just had some hatch, this weekend, and I kept them at around 25% humidity until the last 3 days and then I raised it to around 65% by adding water at lockdown.

Here are a couple of articles explaining why it's best not to have too much humidity for the first 18 days:
