82-86f is what most people incubate at. Fairly high humidity but not so much that you get condensation forming on the lid of the tubs - a line of condensation roughly level with the top of the perlite / vermiculite is ideal.

Under normal (read: sensible) incubation conditions, temperature has no effect on whether or not a beardie will be male or female; more details here:
