Does any one have any opinion on the intelligence of their Ts? I have always been under the impression that they are quite primitive and their brains only follow simple directions, like "go to object" "hide" "attack" "run away" etc. Not complex thought processes. This said My P.regalis seems to show relative intelligence. Example she runs to her hide when ever I open the tank, I used to think this was just because of the vibration/noise and she was scared. but just recently she has started to put her waste food items on a piece of bark right near the door for me to remove. Is she just placing them there as coincidence, or is it a memory that she has created knowing that I will be able to remove them with least disturbance to her. One time she even attached one balled up roach to the inside of the actual door!!!!!
Could this be real intelligence at work or is it just coincidence that is making me think she is more "brainy" than she actually is?
I will just say that no other T that I own or have ever owned has showed this behaviour. But she I my first and only "Pokie" so could this be only true for this species?
I would love to hear some of your experiences....
