    Bc az Neggie says, “it’s not breakfast without peanuts!” I love that you spoil her that way.

    I also noticed no one steals her pudding cup! Burrito sitting next door is likely thinking, “I have to be bitten to get that treatment.” And Missy was hoping for more tomatoes, but didn’t beg Neggie for any….which would have been fair, since Missy is often the one paying the “Neggie tax”.

    Does Neggie ever share with anyone? And if so, with whom?

    Thanks for including us in today’s breakfast gathering! Dear Negra. I can’t believe everyone isn’t circled around Neggie staring at her while she eats her chocolate pudding cup! It’s good to be the Queen. Negra enjoying her orange is the best. She was full of kisses for you.

    It always surprises me that Burrito, Jamie, and others can hold a cup full of smoothie with only two fingers, through the mesh, and not drop the cup. Shows how strong and coordinated their hands are. (Or maybe it just demonstrates how much they love their smoothies!)

    We enjoyed this so much and could have breakfast with them every morning! Love them all:) Thank you for this video!

    Well, that’s what I would call a proper power breakfast. I loved the way Neggie gently received and ate her delicious food……you could hear the crunching of those breakfast delights and what a lovely start to the day for you caregivers connecting with the chimps. No surprise at Jamie’s reaction at the end of the clip, but AFTER she had finished her smoothie. Enough was sure enough with that camera. Thanks, once again for sharing yet another facinating aspect to “a day at the sanctuary”.

    I notice no one tries to take Neggie’s pudding so I assume everyone knows what’s in it except Neggie (thankfully), love her happy food grunts over those oranges. Nice try Missie for seconds and the “just fill my mouth with smoothie” was so cute. I’m always amazed they can hold a full smoothie cup like that. Wow Jamie is fast, I nearly dropped my phone too!

    There’s nothing like a good breakfast to start the day right! Jamie’s group certainly seems to have that down.
    Missy trying to pull a fast one and act like she didn’t get anything was sneaky! Can’t blame a girl for trying… Especially with tomatoes on offer.
    I assume the others don’t try to snatch Neggie’s pudding? I guess it’s too high-value to be worth the risk.
    Jamie seemed to be in a good mood, but I guess she wasn’t feeling too generous with filming privileges! At least this time she got through her smoothie without Annie coming and siphoning it away with a straw!
