Mine do the same thing - but as soon as they know they're not getting fed, because I have the spray bottle or I'm preparing to take them out - they hit the reverse gear and go right back into their hides.
Lol that is EXACTLY what he does!!! He pops out. And then when no dinner he hits reverse until just his head is out of the hide and lays back down hahaha.
