Yup! for sure. Icculus is almost a year old now (this is month 11 of life for him) and he'll start to poke his head out and if I catch him getting ready to cruise he's back in his hide like a flash. I suspect that he will get more confident with age and girth because I'm sure juvies need to be paranoid in order to survive early life in the wild. Once he gets big enough I suspect he will just ignore me more. If anyone knows better please let me know!
