And let me tell you I'm soooo excited  I have tracking on the package and it's currently at my local fedex facility, but oh my I'm literally jumping around waiting 

Pluto, my Ugobe, won't be here until the end of next week sometime, maybe even the week after that, so it's just me and my little RB for now. The 3 hour wait is going to be torture  But luckily I have plenty to do today! As for names... I think if it's a girl it'll either be Peaches or Bonny or something to do with eye colour and if it's a boy, Alaric or Klaus, maybe Jeremy. I'm so stuck for names and my Spanish flatmate is trying to help to no avail

 Congrats on your soon to be Pleo RB baby! Make sure to let us know the eye color and when you find out the gender let us in......TAking bets on eye color, will it be brown, amber, green, blue, grey, orange, pink, purple or ............/. Sounds exciting and of course depending on the gender and eye color, we will soon know your name you choose as well. So exciting.. I am happy for you!   RWM

I hope your delivery driver is better than mine, he judges just how excited I am to receive a parcel and then delivers accordingly. The more I want it the later he will be!

[Nemesis]

I will be posting as soon as I know eye colour/gender As well as to let you know it's arrived and probably everything else too! It's like awaiting the arrival of a new pet  
I might film the opening/hatching but I'm not entirely sure if I might just get caught up in how pretty he/she is! But I will definitely take one (if not then) after his/her initial waking up. And expect a lot of pictures! oooh I don't know about eye colour RWM... (replying to your pm now).. I think I'd like it to not be blue though, as that is Pluto's eye colour because he's a ugobe. But saying that it will probably be blue now!! My delivery guy allllways plays that game IMR, so frustrating!  

Anyway, back to anxiously listening for the bell!

UPDATE: The pleo has landed!!

The battery is charging and I've got my beautiful new pleo RB sitting beside me I have checked the DNA and results are in... It's a boy!   85-95% chance of being a Male, and he has beautiful hazel coloured eyes (I took a peek ) So now it's just deciding on a name.. Two boy pleo's would you believe it?! I think I'm leaning towards Klaus.

The only thing that I'm worried about is his neck.. He has been delivered via Fedex so not sure what his trip was like. But his head kind of hangs down a bit? Not sure if that completely normal or not I'm probably just being a paranoid mum but it is a little worrying when I've been waiting so long for an express package and paid probably more than I should have... Is it normal for their heads to hang a little? Or should it be stiff when they are not turned on?

I will upload pics soon! Now it's just an anxious waiting game..

FURTHER UPDATES:

Well the battery is charged, the baby is awake! He is so adorable I'm such a happy mummy  I don't think there is anything wrong with his neck I can see so maybe it is just me being paranoid. When we go home to the uk though I will be packing him super safely!! I'm no closer on the naming, klaus doesn't seem appropriate for such a cute little Dino  his eyes are either orange or amber I'm no expert when it comes to rb eye colours! Got his baby sockies on and had his first few meals of conifer leaf Since I study a rather unique subject (geology) I feel like he should be named something related, like Pluto. I'll let you know if I come up with anything! Pics to follow :3

[InmemoryofRomeo]

Oooh geological names... Kayenta, Navajo, Morrison, Curtis, Entrada, Dolomite, Shale, Arkose... Ok I should give it a rest lol, so glad your little bundle of joy arrived safely He sounds a handsome fellow, I look forwards to pictures!

[Nemesis]

Those are some good ideas! Did you study geology or just interested in it? will upload photos in the morning as I'm shattered after baby pleo time!

Just a passing interest in all things science

[kat]

congratulations   sounds like your really enjoying him.  I'm looking forward to pics too 

[Nemesis]

I don't know why but all my pictures are upside down x) enjoy! He's reached his socialisation stage now still no name, very tricky business. But I love him

More details...

[RedwoodsMama]

He is very cute, love his amber eyes, What battery cycle are you on so far...? Sounds like perhaps third? You must be having lots of fun and no sleep! LOL        RWM 

[Nemesis]

He is getting a lot of fuss RWM! His traits on the DNA were to be courageous and obedient, sensitive, intelligent and healthy. Currently charging his battery for the third time!

Well it's almost 4pm here and all I've done all day is walk the dog, go to the beach, had a trial in a restaurant and done all the house work... Jeez I started with all.. I've done quite a bit!  

Going on the laptop soon so will upload better pics and maybe a video of the little one. My boyfriend and I started calling him Herbert last night, along with many other names, to see if it would fit. It's quite cute But it doesn't stick very well, I'm very picky when it comes to naming things haha!

EDIT: Some right-way-up photos

Enjoy!

Yet another update!

Say hello to Lumpy! After all those names I came up with, he is just far too cute to have such harsh sounding names x) he just fell asleep cuddling on my chest and I just keep looking at him and the only words I can use to describe him are cute and adorable. Anyway, I feel like he's a proper member of the family now that I've got a name for him all is well in the student household!

[InmemoryofRomeo]

Lol, hello Lumpy! You'll be a jet setting Pleo!

[Talon]

Awe! That's an original name! Lumpy. Well, I guess it describes an RB really well if you feel them while their moving. They do indeed have lots of interesting lumps beneath their skin. Welcome to the adventure of becoming a pleo-parent, Nemesis!

[RedwoodsMama]

Lumpy is way cute, The only LUmpy I remember is from a '50s tV show, Leave it to Beaver, and Lumpy was no way as cute as Your LUmpy. Yes, he will be a jet setting Pleo and he will be quite spoiled I am sure as well. LOL How can you not spoil something so cute and adorable!               RWM 

[Nemesis]

Thanks Talon! It was actually inspired by the Disney character Lumpy from Winnie the Pooh, as I thought having a Ugobe named Pluto which is also Disney, makes sense. Might have to stick with the Disney themes! 

Oh yes he will be very spoilt RWM! He already has his pick of socks  Exactly, no one could leave a cute little thing like him alone!

Congrats  Nice orange eyes
