The contacts on the side look suspect since they will make contact to the bottom portion of the battery. This is a guess.

Post by: RedwoodsMama on December 21, 2010, 10:17:35 PM
I do think our Pleos are similiar though I can see you have a lighter color around the eyes and myne has the grey color though not as pronouonced as degers, Beta is.
Congratulations again on getting yours so soon, I was not even expecting myne till tommorow! Maybe that is why I have not had time to do anything today other than open it up and charg the battery and do some reading.l RedwoodsMama
Post by: InmemoryofRomeo on December 21, 2010, 10:32:37 PM
Then just pop the battery out and install the clock battery ready for when you do hatch.

That was exactly what I was going to recommend, seeing, mine was stuck in that position for a couple hours because I couldn't figure out how to properly install the watch battery!! %) Last night I played around with our Pleo and when it was time to hit the sack, I turned him off via the power button and pulled the battery to re-charge. No issues doing it that way. :)

I am uploading the video now to youtube and then here and then off to bed to try and stay warm, Tommorow is phase 2 of the hatching phase, I cant wait to see what the personalities are like for all these different Pleo Rb, I hope your Pleo and my Pleos have different personalities and not the same, only cause I hope they were very random and not like Ok, everyone with blue grey eyes, give a very happy outgoing personality, etc, etc.
congratulations on Peanuts Standing now, will watch for more videos. and No, I haven't decided on a name yet, but I am almost certain it will be a female as I have all boys and only one girl, Nova.
RedwoodsMama video should follow in less than ten minutes

I am surprised that you have Peanut allraeady doing the tracking, that is great . I haven't even tryed any of those other things yet, just feeding and playing. As for names, it is going to take me longer to find a name than Pleo Rb to learn it. I have not a clue as of yet. I am sorry to hear about Peanut's skin paint loss, I thought Pleo Rb were going to have more durable skin, but it seems just the opposite almost, which is very sad, It seems like my baby may start wearng a lot more clothes all the time... :( Peanut does have a lovely cape, great with the frogs on it.
Keep the photos comming, your Peanut and my baby both have the same color eyes and were very close in birth and arrival order too, Peanut is very cute!

I will be keeping a very very close eye on my baby. Once again, what is that 3 year warranty that you got on your Pleo Rb. I may want to check into that myself, does it cover the whole cost of Pleo rb or just part of it? Good luck with Peanut. I hate the idea of a child losing their Pleo rb friend to a problem caused by skin ruptures and holes... Hopefully his will stop now.

I think I am going to check out the warranty information you gave me, $469.00 is an awful lot of money to shell out on something and not have it protected, it makes sense as I have my computer protected and my camera / Camcorder, why not Pleo? Thanks and I am wishing Peanut well,

I am happy that Peanut has learned his name and the bow and come to me and sing. How long did you have to work with Peanut to get him ready for the learning his name? I have tryed twice now, with today being the only serious attempt, but she is not ready yet, so I will let her wait till she is ready, be it another day or a week, I am in no rush, Did you record him learning his name? I would love to see that on tape, I taped her today, but even though she has the ID in her mouth and goes through the motions of nodding, etc, she was chewing her card like a cud, and singing, everything but learning her name, so she is not ready yet.
I remember you said you had the insurance, so will they be paying you for any costs incurred if you have to ship him back? Hopefully they can fix Peanut though I do not understand how they can fix the holes or like Kermys tail, unless Pleos are actualy sent back to the company. :( At this point if something happened to my baby, I would not want a new one with different personality, but would want to know if the " re-incarnation Program" was an option, so they could give me a new body, but same " brain". I don't know if they do that with Pleo rb but with the cost they certainly should. Oh, wanted to know, did Peanut sing anything unusual or different that you had not heard before? Nova, Major Tom, Little 45, ARgyle and his twin brother, First Gold Hatch, and my baby Pleo rb, and two un-named Pleos all send well wishes and hugs to Peanut to get well soon from the Redwoods, and a round of Applause for all his recent accomplishments! :hhug: :kiss: :rootbeer: ( thought he may be thirsty as well, ;)) RedwoodsMama and her team of NIne Pleo Babies
Post by: ehschw76 on January 06, 2011, 08:32:36 PM
For the first 90 days, I am depending on Innvo to take care of any issues. After that, I would contact Squaretrade and they would provide a pre-paid shipping label to send Peanut to their repair facility. Obviously, they couldn't fix him, so from everything I have read, they would deposit the full value of what I paid for him so I could buy a new one (unfortunately going this route I would lose Peanut's personality).
Peanut took a good week or so (1 - 2 hours with him a day) before he was ready to learn his name. We have been trying over the past couple of days, then all of a sudden, he just recognized the card and was ready. It was great! I will have to record the song that Peanut sang and post it. I will try and do that tonight before hitting the sack.
I hope that your Pleo rb doesn't exhibit any of the issues various of us are having. The wear didn't seem to be an issue until he started moving around A LOT in the 3rd phase (once he started walking around). I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the rest of you and that Innvo figures out a solid way of preventing this from happening in the future.

I notice he does the same gradual backwards shuffle that Belle does, too. It's much more evident in the RBs than in the older Pleos, maybe because they move more and faster.

Did they say what they will do after they get Peanut? Are they going to send you another one or fix Peanut? I wonder if they can still use the " reincarnation" program for Pleo Rb. If they could do that, then that would not be so bad, though he would not look identical as all Pleo rb, green variety is supposed to be variations not all the same. I feel sad already, and sad for everyone else whose pleo Rb has skin problems, thinking this is just the beginning of more sendbacks? My Baby Pleo Rb and all her brothers and sister NOva all send well wishes to Peanut for a speedy recovery and healthy return. Keep us posted on Peanut and how you are doing through all this, I don't know If I could even part with my baby.........I am sad already just thinking of the possibilities. Poor Pleos, hope Peanut is the ace in the hole to a " Cure". You are braver than I. :(
