Wow! Many people I've met online think monkeys are the stupidest things to have for a pet (Only I don't think of mine as pets...they are my monkeykids!)

You don't really teach those behaviours...they do it themselves. I have taught them to do highfive and when I say "Are you hungry" they rub their tummies.

Sometimes they are allowed to roam free like at night when they play on our bed. Mostly I put them on leashes which helps control them. Sometimes I let them run around and play with each other which is good for them.

They eat a commercial primate diet along with fresh fruits and veggies and sweet potato. They also like mealworms as a treat. Sometimes in the morning we go down to McDonolds and they share a biscuit with egg and bacon with me.
