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.
