Yesterday during late afternoon I rigged up a "food bowl" in my 5 month old chams cage and he basically went to sleep after I did so. Now this morning I go into feed him and he was laying on some leaves staring up at this bowl with both eyes locked on to it; I waved my hands around, enticed him with food, watered (which makes him scurry sometimes), and still no movement or even acknowledgement to what I had just done. I finally stuck my hand in to rub his chin, where after the second rub he kinda looked at me and went Holy Crud how long have you been here. Its like my cham is on some psychedelic hallucinogen and is trippin out lookin at this floating food bowl. The branches above his cage "float" and that never once fazed him. I got him to crawl on my hand easily and showed him crickets in his dust bowl then poured those into the food bowl in his cage, placed him on the branch nearest to the bowl and he just faced the other way, with one eye glaring at the bowl and was entranced once more. Im going to remove the bowl soon, I didnt know if this was news to anyone, or if anyone has input that will knock my guy out of his"trip". Heres pics of the bowl, the cage, and him. Any remarks to this occurrence are appreciated. Sorry, the first him image is sideways.
