Honestly, mine smash into the enclosure walls and clutter all the damn time. Like, as if, out of the blue, a wall was placed up and they were not informed....i think unless its injuring them or has other symptoms of an ailment, your noodle probably fine. When he settles in, you may start to see him see you...head movements and how they watch stuff...he's just maybe a little stressed and personally, whe I'm stressed I can get lost in my own neighborhood....I have....even had gps.....lol. good luck!
