Are both of the hides similar? While there is a small chance he may prefer one type over the other, it's not something to worry yourself over at this point. Remember that he's settling into completely different surroundings than what he's used to, and it may take him a couple of days to get his "new territory" staked out. If you haven't been watching him constantly since yesterday morning (especially @ night), there's a very good chance he's been out exploring while you weren't looking - remember, bloods & STP's are very nocturnal.

Keep us posted!
