Just for reference.....I got my BP about 2 months ago and never saw him for about the 1st 2-3 weeks. Occasionally, I'd catch him late at night. It wasn't until recently that he started showing himself and I can now catch him around 9pm every night cruising the enclosure. Please make sure you follow the acclimation process which is don't handle until 3 successful feedings. This will help ensure you give him the best chance of getting used to his cage and reducing his stress level.
