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 :XD:

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! :head-wall:
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 :D I have checked the DNA and results are in... It's a boy! :bliss: 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 :D 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 :dino-chase: 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

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! :dino-chase:
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 ;)
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!

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