Big Yawns

April 20, 2022 by Kelsi

As I walked around the chimp house today I felt really tired. I kept thinking, how could I feel so sleepy? Then I figured it out! I was looking at these cozy lumps all day ;).

Dreamy Cy:

The handsome Terry:

The ever so wonderful Lucky:

And of course the beautiful Jo in the portrait studio:

    I can see why being around all these sleepyheads, relaxing and grooming, resting and reading in big cozy nests would make you want to put down your hose and mop and think about relaxing yourself!

    It’s wonderful that all sixteen chimps have such comfortable lives thanks to your care.

    Thanks, Kelsi!
    Are some of the 6 non-nesters, like Foxie and Burrito?
    I still think you guys should have a competition to see who can get the first photo of Honey B actually sleeping…

      All members of the Lucky Six are nesters. you can usually count on some magazine pages included in Cy’s nest. Burrito has been nesting more in the last couple of years! Foxie’s sleep habits remain austere.

        Maybe the way you guys care for Burrito during his emergencies taught.him the comfort of the nest :slight_smile::heartbeat:
