Hi Marshall, First, you should provide places they are hide in thats totally dark, no matter what kind of lite cycle you choose. Animals do not sleep at night and stay awake in the day, the same way humans do. They will sleep during the day and sometimes be active at night. Sometimes they will choose to sleep for several days. Of if temperatures are not suitable for much longer. Or stay active, day after day. They are are rarely active "all day".

So its important to allow dark hiding, whether its burrows they build or tight deep crevices, or a combination of both. That is independant of any lite approach. Cheers
