There ya go. When you mess with their sleep schedule they will sometimes just go back to sleep even when they should normally be awake.
My veield Kink would do that. i was late getting home once and didnt turn his lights off until 1130 at night, but they came on at 9 the next morning, and he slept until 1030 that morning.
I would suggest getting a timer to control your light schedule. 4 bucks at walmart and you are good to go.

i do 8-8, give or take depending on time of year...try to sync it with your sunrise and sunset times...but 9-9 will definitely work, consistency is key
