just wanted to confirm an info i read. in order for a clutch to hatch it has to have 2 things a temp of 90F and humidity of low-mid 80s. does it matter how this is achieved as long as its achieved?

your close but just a little off..

temp should be 89, this is the general temp that is given BUT people use temps ranging between 87-90. i just wouldnt go over 90.

humidity should be as close to 100% as possible. you dont want condensation on the top that could cause water to drop on the eggs and kill them.

an incubator is the best way to keep constant temps and humidity and there are ones on the internet you can buy and also DIY projects made with coolers that work as well
