    How often does your BP use his hide?

    Does anyone else here have a BP that doesn't use his hide?. Mine once in a while chills in it,usually after meals for a few hrs for a day or so then other words is never in it. Kocur seems to either be slithering around climbing and exploring for hours on end. When he does chill it's usually behind the the hide or in the plants or on top of the plants at the top of the tank or he will just lay chillin in the middle of the tank.

    my humidity and hot side and mat are all regulated. Humidity 55-75 regularly and hot side 84-90 regularly.. He's eating and is strong is kicking ass man.

    Mine are all in them right now. Right where they always are. Unless they are hungry. If yours is out roaming for hours, he is more than likely stressed. What is your set up like?

    Mine are almost always in them except on some nights (not when shedding and not the day after eating), they have their heads, and sometimes a part of their body's out.

    mine is always in the hide, sometimes for days on end. i move the hide every once in a while just to make sure shes still alive. she gets out for water or to switch hides but for the most part shes curled up in one of her hiding spots.

    My little guy stays in his hide all day. About the time I come home from work, he comes out for a little while, then goes back in his hide. Starting at about 7 to 8 PM, he starts exploring. I'm not sure what he does after hubby and I go to bed, but often times, when I get up for work in the morning, he's either on top of his hide or exploring. When the sun comes up, ZIP! he's back in the hide and pretty much stays there during the daylight hours, maybe occasionally poking his nose out. He's active at night.

    Oh, unless he's just been fed. Then he just flat stays in his hide for at least 24 hours no matter what time of day it is.
