I have had my ball almost a year now. He has always staied in his hides... well at least 90% of the time. The only time he would ever come out is at night or he would just poke his head out during the day. It almost as if he was just putting his head out to be involved with what every was going on.

The last 3 weeks though he has been very active. As soon as my wife and come home he comes out of his hide and hangs out on his stick. I have his tank covered with a screen and half the screen is covered with a large magnet to help keep one side of the tank warmer. He likes to look out of the side that isnt covered. Its almost as if he is wanting me to take him out or he is getting fresh air...

I am wondering if he is just more confortable now and that is why he comes out more or could he be stressed?

My wife and I are getting ready to buy him a larger tank because he is starting to grow out of his current tank. Not sure if this has anything to do with it either.

Anyone experience this?
