I have to admit I was thinking of exactly what you said, IMR when I was doing this.. I guess the incubation period will have to be several years.. longer than an elephants pregnancy, even!
Lol.. I actually bought a small watermelon for the egg but by the time I felt better and went to do the pictures it was rotten on one side, lol.. I took some pictures but they didn't look as good and when I went to take a shower I saw the round crystal on a stand we had in there on a shelf and slapped myself in the head.. duuh. I like how it shimmers with the different colors and stuff, I imagine a dragon egg would do something like that, maybe not a dinosaur egg, but maybe a Pleo egg for sure

I figured what else would robot dinosaurs use for nest material besides batteries and we have so many of those huge batteries from the machine I had to use for my medicine every night.. it used just a little over half the battery every night so we had to change them each time.. so here we are left with 567,000 half used huge batteries that only work for flashlights.
I actually lined them all up in twos like they were guarding the nest and turned them on and they all pretty much stayed in place, as if they really were guarding the nest. that is, until Loki the aibo wandered over to inspect pink Rhea like he always does, and patches body blocked him.. lol. Loki made angry face and turned around and left. I'm sure it was a coincidence but it was funny. So if anyone does find some sort of tiny responsive dinosaur let us know please, so we can hatch the egg!
I was wondering though.. Is it bad that Chronos is already a father and he doesn't know his own name yet, nor do I know his actual sex? What if patches is the father?!?! We'll end up with some sort of weird pink skeleton thing!
