Behavior question

I have a almost year old GBK who is extremely active!!! He is always on the move, seemingly never sleeping!! He has a hide but as far as I can tell is NEVER in it! He is on the move... up the sides of his house, up and over his hide and his tree limb. Is this normal? He eats great and is very friendly. He has been acting like this for as long as we've had him, since March of this year.

Thanks!

How hot is your cage?? Is there a gradient of temperature for him to choose from?

what Hugh said... plus...

How often do you feed him? Since he eats great
he may just be hungry, and looking for another snack.

Also make sure his hide has tight spaces. He'll feel more secure.
