I've always heard 48 hours not 72. My little guy will spend the first couple hours after a feeding with his head out of the hide to make sure no more food is coming, then he'll scrunch up in the corner of his hide, unseen for the rest of the 48. When he's ready, a little snoot will appear in the doorway and eventually he'll slink out and explore or come out for handling if I open the lid.
