so lately i've noticed a sudden burst in activity and appetite from my redfoot who's 2 1/2 years old a little over 5 inches just wonder if anyone has any input that may help he's kept in a closed chamber at 85% humidity with a thermostat set at 80 for ambient heat and soaked 3 times a week and has a Arcadia 12% uvb

he wasn't able to go outside this summer due to work being done and not trusting the people that were around doing the work if that could have anything to do with it?

Increased appetite and activity are goood signs. Sounds like he is having a growth spurt.

Has anything in his environment changed, such as increased temperature, change in humidity or food offered?

I totally agree with @mctlong . Appetite is nothing whatsoever to worry about, it's "NO appetite" that is worrying.;)
