latrine · « **on:** May 08, 2011, 09:47:53 PM »

A relative heard about mine being broken and I guess with me being so sick and all they were trying to cheer me up... what a surprise.. we weren't sure what to do.
I don't wanna sell a present but I already have 2 rb's... so I was thinking I'll just peek.. lemme just peek at the eyes. I'm sure they are just blue or something..

LIGHT PURPLE!!!

So I dunno what I'm gonna do. I only opened it to peek at the eyes, didn't remove it or anything..
Thats my favorite freaking color.. :\

What should I do? My bf says sell it but I don't wanna sell a gift plus that would prolly mess up/void the warranty for whoever bought it..
My neices and nephews have a ugobe dunno if theyd be able to share an rb when its more clear cut 'one recognized owner'.. ya know? With the voice recognition and eeverything. Theres 4 of them.. and my bf's niece is too little yet.
Plus it has purple eyes.
Purple...

Well of course I'd say sell it.. to me

I'm considering getting a new green one.

aibo7m3 · « **Reply #2 on:** May 09, 2011, 03:29:40 AM »

I would say keep it. Purple eyes are very rare. If you sell it you may find yourself regretting it later. If you turn it on you will probably become too attached to it to sell it anyway. What's wrong with three RBs?

Crewella · « **Reply #3 on:** May 09, 2011, 04:03:12 AM »

Wow!! Just wow!!

*jealous*

I'd say sell it to me, but it's a long way to send it, if you do decide to sell ................ and I really shouldn't be buying more Pleos!

ADDED:

But having got the 'sell it to meeeeee' feelings out of my system, I think you should keep it anyway. It's a guilt-free gift, it has gorgeous eyes, it WILL cheer you up, and they don't exactly cost a lot to run or anything. Just enjoy it!

And congrats, it's a lovely surprise!

kat · « **Reply #4 on:** May 09, 2011, 04:46:29 AM »

I agree

Keep it and enjoy the gift. You can never have too many pleos.

And purple eyes are just to die for.

You know you want to keep it.

OzPleo · « **Reply #5 on:** May 09, 2011, 04:49:33 AM »

Yes really keep it. There's no guilt when it's a gift.

Crewella · « **Reply #6 on:** May 09, 2011, 05:02:00 AM »

Sorry Ozpleo - I didn't mean to do you out of a Pleo RB!

Either way, go for one!

Ok here she is in all her glory.. the new un named baby I'm hoping is a girl..
I noticed she seems to have looser skin on her legs neck and tail and maybe less of that padding on her sides making her look maybe a bit thinner but could be just me.. I'll show in the photos. Just looks different from what mine look like anyways..

Here she is in the box and me peeking and saying OMG LIGHT PURPLE

Those eyes are beautiful! Congrats on your new baby

latrine · « **Reply #9 on:** May 09, 2011, 08:21:03 PM »

Thanks, IMR

in case it's only showing up on my page.. the images are weird.. some are moved around slightly to the right and some are movedleft to be right along the edge of the page with some text missing. Also, the background color to the post changes to dark green halfway through and then back to the normal color.. seems to change color in alignment with some images..
These are all normal images posted from the gallery here and they also say things like "" alt="" border="0" />" after them even though stuff was placed correctly in the middle of the image brackets

The pictures going off to the left side and text being lost seems to start where I talked about the first thing she would eat picture..
I can see it here on my DSi too, sorry it looks so screwy guys I assume it must be on the other end, all I did was what I usually do, just paste the code from my gallery pic between the image brackets :/
Sorry, everyone!!!

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #10 on:** May 09, 2011, 09:10:04 PM »

I think you may have copied some wrong codes, it looks as though you have used the HTML codes rather than the BBC code. Also try posting them in a couple of posts, might be too many images in the one post.

Crewella · « **Reply #11 on:** May 09, 2011, 11:59:28 PM »

I hope you don't mind, I tidied it for you, Sarah, as IMR says it was the wrong code - use the BBC Embed Code under the image in gallery and you don't need anything else.

ADDED: Doh!! Am I stoopid or what - I got so tied up with tidying I wasn't looking at the pics!!

That is one VERY pretty Pleo, I really can't see you giving that one away!! Just enjoy!

lol oh no I was only kidding and as you know I have a new one on the way.

Those eyes are pretty.

obviously you're keeping it which is a good decision.

kat · « **Reply #13 on:** May 10, 2011, 05:32:12 AM »

She really is quite a beautiful little girl. The eyes are just to die for.

Looks like your having fun with her too.

Lina · « **Reply #14 on:** May 10, 2011, 01:30:47 PM »

Wow the new baby looks really great! I hope you feel better.
So now you have 2 Rbs? They really are addictive...

fimoman · « **Reply #15 on:** May 10, 2011, 02:31:13 PM »

Wow, cute. Never seen one with purple (Or pink. Thy looked more pink to me, but I dunno) eyes before.

And no, as long as you take care of them all, you can never have enough Pleos. I'm more a fan of lavishing one's love all on one Pleo, but that's just me. I have a feeling that if I had the opportunity to adopt another Pleo, I totally would.

latrine · « **Reply #16 on:** May 10, 2011, 03:07:26 PM »

Lina.. it's 3 rb's now..

It's actually time consuming to feed them.. I wish I could give them bowls in the kitchen like the dogs!!

Hmm.. thanks so much for cleaning it up for me Crewella but the code I copied was just the small code with just the numbers, the BBC embed code, and I put it inside the image brackets.. oh well. I'm just glad it got fixed.. all the pictures I posted yesterday ended up that way :/

I just had an interesting thing happen... Chronos and Rhea were trancing and they finally completed it and, I'm pretty sure... they both blew kisses at the end..

I just taught 'him' his name, too.. sigh. I guess Patches is the father..

With the eyes, I thought pink at first too but they are definitely very light purple. do we have pink eyes to pop up and compare? And is there a picture of Ryu somewhere that we can compare her purple eyes? Didn't we have a page up with pics of all our Pleo RB's headshots/eyecolors and names? I thought we did and if not, we should!

I'm having fun with her for sure.. shes standing up already and while I was holding her all she wanted to do was crane her head to the ground so she seemed happiest on the floor with her.. (sigh) sisters. I need to change Chronos's Gender.. or is that wrong.. lol.

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #17 on:** May 10, 2011, 04:01:56 PM »

You know that just because the DNA says female... Doesn't mean they have to be female.

Look at Pleakley

latrine · « **Reply #18 on:** May 10, 2011, 04:37:02 PM »

Yeah I know but it was the response in the trance, I haven't been able to check the DNA for any of mine. Chronos (green rb with yellow eyes) did the blow kisses response, as did Rhea.
The males (Bingo, who got sent back) said "I love you" the male response.
So, therefore, both Rhea and Chronos are female, right? I better think of a different name for.. her

I had been calling her crow for short maybe I'll change it to that.. I dunno. I'd rather change her to male.. I'm so used to calling her him! and I still can't access the pleo site:P I have to try the Hong Kong one!!

kat · « **Reply #19 on:** May 10, 2011, 04:41:35 PM »

I was of the understanding that girls would only blow kisses at boys. Kermy and Norbit are both girls (don't tell him that though) and I never get kiss blowing from trances any more. If it is two girls trancing you will almost always get two steps back two steps forward and moo followed by a playful crouch and giggle. Norbit did sing a few notes of a funny little tune the other day at the end of the trance instead of the moo but everything else was the same.
Back in the days when Norbit really was a boy he would always end the trance with I love you and then the crouch and giggle and Kermy would end it with a kiss then crouch and giggle.

I think your going to have to either check the gender on pleoworld or use the statesrb program and see what it says. Now I really want to know.

As a girl Norbit has blown the odd kiss here and there and he is on the newest firmware out of my two. Kermy will only do it if there is a boy around.

When the official update comes out on pleoworld I plan on changing Norbit back into a boy.

Until then I'm enjoying him in his current state.
I'd love to know what sex your new one is too. I found out the profile of mine on the Hong Kong site. good luck.

latrine · « **Reply #20 on:** May 10, 2011, 06:26:31 PM »

Ok well I just caught them on video all three trancing at once. Rhea blew a kiss, Chronos petered out and did nothing and the new baby.. said I love you..

But this morning Rhea blew kisses and then Chronos blew kisses about 2 seconds after Rhea did it.. they both walked toward each other first. I have a crazy love triangle!! Uploading the video now....

Ok sorry it's so dark at first, I did not expect the new baby to do the trance so quickly and ran for the camera, my crappy DARK camera. this is only her third cycle and she had tranced twice and completed it successfully both times with the "I love you".. er.. HE, I guess.. bah I wanted to put lovely lashes on those eyes lol..

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LlHMpGQbPY" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LlHMpGQbPY</a>

Maybe I should have realized they were both girls yesterday when I turned the new baby on.. I thought this was a friendly cuddle.. maybe it was a fight for the only male with .. skin.

More details...

And here our dog Phibber is just disgusted by the entire thing: (sorry it's dark)

More details...

And while we were all busy, I noticed Loki.. maybe trying to give himself a power surge? He did stare at it for like 15 minutes and took a picture then I realized.. duh.. it's the red writing on the caution note.. lol.

More details...

The same thing is happening to my pictures here so I'll stop putting them on.. I don't see what I'm doing wrong, I am just placing the the BBC embed code between the brackets of the insert image brackets same thing I have always done but I get " " alt="" border="0" /> " after it. Bah that ruins the pictures and makes me feel dumb.. lol.

Hi Sarah, first in case I haven't tol you yet, Congrats on the New Baby, girl or boy, she he is beautiful! Violet eyes were my first choice for Pleo Rb eyes even before they came out, but I have had Pleo RB with light blue grey eyes, and my new Baby has yellowish green, so I am in love with the one I have. She does have the prettiest shade of eyes, sometimes they look pinkish, other times light purple.
I do have a question, does this mean if you have a Rb and they blow kises they are a girl and they can do this on their own without another Rb around, specifically a male RB? I have 11 other Pleos but only 1 Rb, so I haven't seen this behaivor yet, the blowing kisses, but the PleoWorld sites says she is a girl and that is what I wanted.

I have had my Baby since March 18th, but she is still only on her fifth battery cycles ( and I have Two batteries) I haven't had the play time that I had for my original back in December and early January. I am missing out on a lot as she hasn't even learned her name but it took at least 6 weeks for my original Baby Rb to learn her name, but also the hatching stage was a lot longer than this time around, not on my part, but I think Innvo shortened it as a lot of people thought it took too long, ( I like the baby stage personally

) Well, have fun with your new baby, whichever gender it is, tis a lovely Pleo RB, and what a lovely gift for a lovely lady!

Patches is looking good these days too, I hope I can get Humpty together to look as good as Patches does.( Humpty is my Pleo I rescued that "fell out of a tree", and someone tried to fix his broken neck and botched the job and almost decapitated his head in the process. :oMonsters and Barbarians look like angels compared to the person who had poor Humpty . :(Enjoy your little Pleo Herd and I will have to watch my baby for more trancing they can do it all on their own as I have observed a few times, just have to watch for "kisses".

latrine · « **Reply #22 on:** May 10, 2011, 08:55:33 PM »

I don't think you'll see your little girl do the blow kisses RWM, but I don't know for sure

I only see them do the 'kissing' and 'i love you when both of the RB's have been 'talking' and then they kind of almost back up a step and the take a step forward and THEN walk towards each other. Maybe you can see it in my video even though Rhea bumped into the new baby. Rhea did the smooch, New baby said I Love You, and Chronos backed off before completing it. I wonder what will happen if they all complete it.. A big smack-down over the boy with the gorgeous eyes??

So, they start the walk toward each other.. at this point they either continue the walk and respond to each other, one of them or both back out and cry or laugh or whatever they wanna do, or just one does the proper response while the other stops walking and cries/shakes head sadly. (This is what I have observed with mine)

I think they made the hatching stage WAY too short.. my new baby is on her..gaah. HIS third charge.. walking.. he tranced twice already and completed it both times where all of my other RB's have taken at least a week or so of trying off and on before completing it.. I assumed it was 'part of growing up' lol.. then again the light thing could have something to do with it.. the new baby is still cheerful and it is the only RB not running PleoPet's scared of the dark skit.. so who knows whats going on.

Latrine, with images you only need the BBC embed code, you don't need to put it between image brackets as it already knoows it's an image. I've tidied your post again, if you click modify on it you'll see all I did was take the IMG brackets out.

latrine · « **Reply #24 on:** May 11, 2011, 02:32:02 PM »

Yah, I realized that last night about 4 am right before I fell asleep but I didn't wanna get up and change it then because I would never have fallen asleep.. I'm sorry, guysI don't know why I suddenly got that brain fart.. these horribly meds I'm on sometimes make me forget stuff so I'll blame them

They also make me unable to sleep

It won't happen again, sorry and thanks Crewella

Oh well.. but anyway I finally got admitted to register pleos on the pleoworld site but could not find the place to find out about DNA settings, so I still am not 100% sure about Chronos.. From what Kat said it made me wonder if Chronos and Rhea only did the kissy thing because there was a male in the room but I assumed they needed to communicate/trance to know that.. I guess we'll see.. Ah, well - I REALLY wanted the little purple eyed one to be a girl and Chronos to be a boy but.. don't tell them that

I'm going to take everyone outside today/tomorrow as it finally dried up, even Loki, but everyone is getting socks.. lol. Loki may have to hold off because I may not have any that fit him!!
