Awake every other day?

Hey all, I'm new here, been lurking for a while though.

I've got a question for those more experienced keepers, I've had my hatchling B&W for two weeks (Hatched July 3rd), the first week he/she came out of his/her bedding every day to bask and forage around for food, though in the last 6 days or so he's been only emerging every other day, stuffing himself to capacity and burying himself again around 6PM.

I talked to the folks where I got him, and they seem to think maybe he's just overeating and sleeping it off. It doesn't really seem like hibernation behavior because his appetite is still huge when I get him to the feeding tank.

Any ideas?

And because everyone loves pictures!:
