First I thought it was coincedence, but after watching my guyz, I found that Noogie and Squee will both beg to come out of their cages when they see Smeagie is out and about.
They are not affraid of Smeagie as long as they watch him from inside their comfort zone, but it's like, 'hey! he gets to come out, how bout me!!??'
Of course, I cant let them out at the same time.
Smeagie can be less then hospitible to other chams and has a tendency to charge after them while all puffed-up and gapping.
Pretty scary if your a little cham!!
So I have to find other places in the house to let them roam free.
Noogie likes to get on my shoulder and just enjoy my body heat and free rides.
When he looks at something and moves a few steps twords it, I assume he wants to go check it out. So if it looks safe, I just extend my arm to that spot and Noogie will use it as a bridge to get there from my shoulder.
It's sort of a little understanding communication we have.
When he's done checking it out, he will give me a sign, like staring at me, and moving slightly to me as I approch. He just gets right on my hand and up to the shoulder again, and off we go to some other exciting adventure!
Squee is new to the free range. One time he wanted out and I let him climb my arm forgetting that Noogie was on my other shoulder.
Squee dissapeared from my veiw behind my head, I heard a 'hiss', then, 'thud'!! I almost had a heart attack! Squee saw Noogie, freaked out and did the dreaded "suicide drop" and landed, dumbfounded, on my Lay-Z-Boy recliner! LOL
Of course, he was okay, and Noogie was totally clueless of what happened as usual
No point or purpose whatsoever to this post, just another day in the life of a cham Dad
