    For daily keeping, 50-60% is considered fine and healthy. When they go into shed, try to bump it up to 60-70% for the duration.

    When exactly is the best time to bump it up? Trey started turning blue yesterday, should I do it now or wait?

    Yeah, I would do it at the first sign of going into shed. And a few days later when you find the shed skin, drop it back to the normal range.

    Do you have a canapy on your tank. That is the best way to keep heat a humidity.

    I'm going to rely on some experienced people to help you, but a few things I have done:
    Trey is in a glass aquarium with a screen top. I added some ConTac paper to the screen, covering about 2/3 of it, to keep in moisture. This has stabilized his humidity.
    I added a bigger water bowl, with more surface water.
    I put half the water bowl over his UTH.
    I sprayed 3 squirts of mist tonight, will do it again in the morning if he needs it.
