These chams....Pudge was very sociable from the get go. She loved to climb up your face, dangle from your nose, or perch on the top of your head. When the dogs (black labs) came around, her bars would turn black (beauty). She ate from my hand at a young age as well.



Now Squig...he came in at a very young age and was promptly placed in the living room (admist the major chaos of my house). He hangs out under his light (behind the ficus leaves) when things are really active, but does venture out when quite. When I fed him in the beginning, he would literally run into the secluded corner. Now, he hangs back to see what goodies I am putting in today (he even eats in front of me!). He still runs when I mist...but emerges shortly after to lap the leaves. Haven't seen him drink from the drip....he does stare at it intently though.



All in all, he is getting more used to our family, and is gaining more trust that we are not preditorial monsters. I hope that after following some of the advice received here, that Frodo (love the name) settles in.



Good Luck!
