Just got my first BP!!

[beaglegod]

Finaly got my first ever snake, a beutiful 5 month old BP I named Plissken (for all you "Escape from New York" fans) , Im letting him settle into his new home now trying not to disturb him, but I just have one question.

Is it ok to turn the lights on in his room and watch to see if he comes out of hiding, or should I just stay out of the room as much as possible. Ive only seen him come out once and that was when I snuck a peek at 3 A.M.

tHANKS FOR THE ADVICE GUYS
