You look like your on the right track! He will take a little bit to warm up to you, I have had some chams that are very aggressive in general and others that are very sweet so it's just a matter of the animals actual temperament and how comfortable he gets with you. I have also found that if I...
Thanks! We are very happy with her progress and through all of this she has become a lot more loving then when we first received her injured little self. I think she is going to live a long and happy life.
