HARRY PETRI IS HERE!!!! duw

Postby Christi Rose » Fri Nov 09, 2007 9:00 am

That's right!! He's here. He got here around 9:30. I've been up waiting since about seven. Once I saw the brown truck out front, I lept out of bed, bounded across the house and flew through the front door. I almost hugged the delivery guy I was so excited! Here's some pics of the process:

Little Skinkie box:

Little skinkie box, very gently ripped open

Little skinkie bag taken out:

I had to cut open the bag because he was balled up in the back, when he saw that he was free, he made a run for it. My little brother caught him before he made it under the couch, then I got him.

SKINKIE!!
Image

And, yes! Only his second pic and I already have a tongue shot!
Image

And here is Harry Petri, exploring his new home

thanks!

Glad he got home safe!

I included a cheap card advertisement because I know you just got married... :hehe:

Also, he has a slight droop on that one side because of a little catfood that he didn't get all the way off -- I'm not sure you even noticed it.

It's so cool that you're back.

Awwww ... so cute. :innocent: Glad Harry Petri arrived safe and sound. I keep calling him Harry Potty in my mind (we are big H. Potter fans and that is our nick name for him). I guess it would work as skinks are magical. :wink: Congrats.

:D Thanks everyone!!! I was out of town for the night dropping off my little brother. I appreciate everyone's comments :D

Zatchie, I think I saw the spot that you were talking about, on the back of his head? He also has a small scrape on the left side of his mouth, did that happen in shipping?

Tattoo, we're big Harry Potter fans too :D

Petri slurped a little food today, then went right back into hiding. I'm going to let him rest a bit, I think, before dragging him out again. When he's out, he's very active, lots of ton flicking, and he hasn't hissed or displayed.
thanks!

Very nice skinker! Did you mean to write "Hurray!" and not "Harry" Petri is here? :lol: If so, that's funny. If not..... never mind..... :doh:
