I've bred different subspecies of Tiliqua for years. The humidity varies depnding on locality. For instance, an Irian or Indonesian blue tongue is going to need humidities similar to the requirements of any rainforest species (60-90%), whereas a northern or eastern bluetongue will thrive in the 40% range, and central and western blue tongues can tolerate well below that. However, all of them adapt well to captive conditions. Best guess is to keep them on cypress mulch (no need to buy the expensive pet store brands - go to Lowe's and get a giant bag for two dollars, just remember to bake it and let it cool) and mist lightly two to three times daily.
