My little guy gets insanely hyper sometimes as well. I use one of those plastic paint trays for his water dish (obviously it never had paint in it), yet he still manages to dump it over all the time. I actually had to adjust the time his lights come on due to the fact that every hour after he woke up he would start to jump at/climb up the sliding glass doors on the front of his cage. The cage is currently in my room thus making it kind of difficult to sleep at times. He would prop himself up on his tail and just run full speed on the glass door, going no where of course.

I assume its just out of boredum sometimes, because he eats every day almost and always has water. Once he gets a little bigger I will walk him outside a bit to use up that energy and trim is nails. I have a puppy harness but it is slightly too big for him...the lizard harness I have is way too small.
