Hey everyone! If you've read my previous topic today, my new Pleo from Robotshop arrived faulty and will likely be sent back for a refund in the next few days. I was all set up to believe that there would not be a little hatchling Pleo to be born on Christmas, but then I heard a knock on the door from the post woman. The as is pink Pleo RB that I bought from the forums here just arrived and she's still in hatchling stage! She has a little over an hour left before she grows into social development. She has a lot of skin wear (she might be from the original run of RBs) and has a broken vertebra in her neck, but her cables seem okay for now which is good news. She may not be the Pleo I was expecting, but she's still a little Christmas miracle for me to raise.
Here are a couple pictures of her. I had a different name in mind her for originally, but I think I'll be calling her "Mira" (short for Miracle) now given the circumstances.
Anyone have any advice on repairing a broken vertebra? I know some people have done this with super glue and rubber bands before, but a little more info might be helpful. And is it a big risk to the cables to keep running her with a broken vertebra for a few hours or no?
