Cracker dried to soft and bendable?

My shrooms always come out cracker dry fresh out of the dehydrator, but then go soft after a day or 2 no matter how long I leave them in the dehydrator.
Are they they fine like this or what? Is this normral how long will they keep for?
Should I re dry then store in glass jar?

Put them in a glass jar or in mylar bags.
They are going soft because they are absorbing the moisture in the air.

Yea, they're absorbing moisture from the air. After dehydrating, I put mine in an airtight container with some drierite at the bottom, separating the two with some plastic mesh since indicating drierite is toxic.
I used to keep my slightly rehydrated shrooms for a couple weeks with no mold development. I've got no idea how long they would last like that, though.

I know what cracker dry means and it probably is the moisture in the air with them lying around in no bag. Rehydrated and put them in a plastic bag with air squeezed out.

If you cannot crush them into dust with your fingers they are not cracker dry.
