What's his light cycle like? How bright is his container? How much traffic goes by his container?
For comparison... My diamond/jungle stays in her hide all day. NEVER once seen her out of it in daylight unless I took her out myself. The container is glass but put in a somewhat dimmer part of the room.
I've got a timer on the UTH and heat light which turns off at 8:30pm. A while after this turns off (say 9pm or so) she will always come out and move to her branch where she'll hang out as far as I know all night long. My wife tells me that at 5am she's still out on the branch. Once the lights start coming on in the house, I assume she packs it in and retreats to the hide again, she's definitely no longer out by around 7:30am. If I come out late at night and turn on some nearby lights, it does not seem to bother her - she stays out.
If he's eating fine then at least his stress level can't be TOO much. He may grow out of it as he gets bigger, or it may just be individual personality variations.
