    Shy baby ball!

    I was just wondering, My new baby ball "Buddy" NEVER comes out of his hide. I am up most of the night studying and I know they like to stay hidden in their hides most of the time... but Buddy NEVER comes out! Is this normal?

    thanks everyone!

    As long as your husbandry is fine I'd say that's normal and nothing to worry about.

    Turn off allllllll the lights..
    Be absolutely silent...
    And wait till around 2am-3am and you MIGHT see him slither around.

    My younger (when they were small small) would only ever come out around that time.

    If he has a full bell they will be COMPLETELY content to simply sleep and digest. They are opurtunistic eaters and if they are full then they won't look for an oppurtunity
