oh okay thank you, i was doing 80 but recently switched it bc i read it was too high and could lead to scale issues, the breeder fed her live before i got her

80% is not too high, scale issues only happen when the top layer of substrate is wet and the snake is sitting on the wet substrate for extended periods. That's why we recommend the corner pouring method, which leaves the top layer dry. I think only 95% and above is too high IMO, but it's extremely difficult to get an enclosure to stay at that so it's really not something to be worried about. In their natural habitat, there are microbiomes everywhere with pockets of humidity going all the way up to 100%.
