He Yawned at me!!!

Post by sparks42 »

Well, this isn't a new thing to me, but it's still exciting :D

My step Dad was watching Chomper (my gsp) and my step dad yawned.....then Chomper yawned!!!!!
I know humans yawns are contagious...I didn't know fish get it too !!!!!! It's so cute.....so then I faked a yawn while Chomps was looking at me...and again!!! He yawned!!! It's the cutest little thing in the world, has anyone else experienced this???

Yawning is quite normal, I find it usually is followed by some teeth grinding warning me off.

That's so cute! Sounds like you should be able to get a great pic of that, since he does it when you do.

Actually I got a video of it....but it's blurry....I have a crappy webcam so I'm waiting for some $$ so I can get some good quality pics and vids. And when I get a good one, it'll be here!!
