Who Said Cham's Aren't Smart?

I think my female ambanja is pretty darned smart, if you ask me!

She took to the dripper soon as she was in the enclosure and she understood the feeding cup no problem. She even grasped the tong and hand feeding methods in a cpl days.

She now will climb across the cage and sit on top of the feeding cup and lick her lips when she is hungry. Its kind of funny but also bad.

She doesn't want to free range anymore and since i started tong and hand feeding she doesn't go for the feeding cup. She will sit up there and lick her lips and sometimes scratch at the screen to get my attention if I do not come and feed her myself.

If I hold up the yellow tongs and she is interested in eating she will scamper across the cage to where i am even.

I put her crickets in the feeding cup for the last 2 days and she would just sit there and look at me and scratch the screen until i came and fed them to her. Its cute but a quick way to make a active cham fat and lazy!;)
 
Yeah i am guilty of spoiling pets real quickly. Was ez to get her interested in tongs and hand feeding with butterworms rotating in and out with crickets. :)
