How old is he? What size cage is he in? How often is he let out of the cage? What's his light cycle? My baby lewisi is on an 8:30 A.M.-9:00P.M. light cycle and he still sometimes doesn't come out till 11:00, but he is young. My Rhino I use to have would scratch at the glass when I came home but he was spoiled and spent most of his time out of the cage. Therefore he never wanted to be in his cage. He also got use to the routine and time I let him out. Sounds like your cuban wants out. Is there some past routine in the morning that may make him act this way like feeding or something else? If he's big and tame enough I would let him roam the room while you sleep. Once my animals are big and tame enough they rarely sleep in their cages over night. I come home let them out to roam and they find their regular sleeping spot when it's time to go to sleep. I wake them up in the morning or they wake me up and I feed them and put them back in their cage. Cyclura are possibly the most intelligent lizards around. This is why I love interacting with them so much. People underestimate their mental capacity.
