wont hide after being handled

[beardieguy]

well i handle my bp just about daily and last night he was very good just layed on my lap watching me without moving it seemed like the best session so far but when i put him back he tried to get back out and would lay out of his hides for 2 hours.it also seems like whenever hes the most relaxed when hes out he allways tries to escape but when he not so relaxed he goes right back 2 his hides.i think he wants back out at those times but i allways heard that snakes werent like that so i wonder what other peoples experiences are?heres a pic of him when he was going in and out of his hides.

after i have mine out for awhile and put them back in they usually cruise around for a bit.i think bein out wakes them up a little bit.

sounds like he is just being curious. my snake never goes straight to his hide after i hold him. he like to scope out his tub to make sure there are no intruders before he goes to the saftey of his side.
