I had the same exact issues you had when I first got my baby ball, same setup, etc. The best and biggest change I made was to get rid of the Aspen, I switched to coconut husk substrate. Once I started using that my humidity is always 55-65%. Aspen doesn't hold moisture well even with a cover screen and larger water dish. Just my 2 cents
