Unfortunately, this is common. I advise you to buy a digital indoor/outdoor hygrometer for that purpose. Accurite is the brand of choice.
Normal humidity levels should be 50-60%
Shedding time humidity should be 70-80%

I would recommend the accurite thermometer/hygrometer you can get at wal mart. I know there are alot of people here that have them and would probablly also recommend them. I think they're like $15-$20
