I went on OctoPets website and see a baby bimac is only $25.00, including shipping??????? Is this possable???? I ordered one. So, I will be a 2 octo household shortly!!!!! Figured even if that was a mistake, shipping would be 30 or so.

Just curious what were all your babies fees?

I am excited!!! Just have to decide who gets the bigger tank!!!! I'm thinking of moving Lil P but, he seems happy where he is.

Carol

Carol,

Congrats!! :D

I got Ochi from octopets, and everything went smoothly. I would recommend Jim to anyone based of my experience with them. Ochi was 25 plus shipping. When is your octo comming!!!!!!!!!!!!! 8)

Good luck and congrats again!!! :D

Congrats Carol, mine was also $25 plus $30 shipping to NC. Yay for two octopus households!!!

<--------Jealous
only a one octo house :wink:

Congrats Carol! :D

<--------Jealous only a one octo house

Lucky, I've got none, and won't get another for a while. I put my dwarf seahorses in my 20 gallon tank and am going to breed them, so I can raise money for a larger tank, and then I'll put the squid (if Paul can find out more about them, he says the company just sort of laughs at him and asks why do you want squid) in my 20 gallon.

I've got none either :(

You just couldn't help it, could you Carol? :)

I hope things go smoothly! Do you know when the baby is coming, I can imagine the kids are gonna be excited!

:D :D :D :D He's coming today by noon!!!!! Did massive waterchange on Inks tank. I am so excited!!! Will keep everyone posted!!! Maybe I will have a sibling too!!!! :D

And Joel.....I couldn't resist!!!! I am surprised I did as long as I did!!! I like having Octos from one end of the house to the other!!!!

Jess doesn't know yet.....Wait till she see's that truck pull up in front of the house!!!!! Also ordered more fiddler crabs!!! They arrive next Wed!

Thanks for all the congrats!!!

Carol

Getting more siblings on this site hopefully :D

Time is gonna start getting slower as it nears the day :bugout:
I'm sharing your excitement :heee:

Do you have a name yet? :D

Do we have a squishy on this site????? Not sure yet..... I get to name this one, as my son named Ink and Jessica named Lil Pumpkin!!

I'm open to suggestions!!!

He's here in NJ, actually next town over.....They should have been here by now.........But delivery is guaranteed by noon but hopefull he'll be here shortly!!!!

Carol

Ants bimac will be Squishy, but it should've been Spam (always a good name).
Good Luck!!!!!!!!! :D

Jelly Kelly? :)

Jelly Kelly :lol:

I too am sharing in this excitement again. Just got Ochi last week, and man the wait was fun, hope all goes well, and hopefully more sibs. :wink:

Titan if its a guy?

nimreh? ( Hermin spelt backword if you didn't know)

Has anyone called their octo Pulpo or krake, they're German for a bimac.

How exciting - nother sibling arriving today. Hope all goes well.

It's hard for me to watch all these baby bimacs arriving and not have one myself!

Looking forward to some pics of the little guy, and finding out what his name is.

Nancy

Any updates? What about Neil?

Cool! Another sibling! Maybe, hopefully. Im getting mine in just a few days!

Jelly Kelly! :lol:

Not here yet....2mins to 12!!!!

He's late!
Nancy, when/do you plan on getting another octo? :)

Edit: Is he here yet? It's about 12:30!!

:x Still waiting.......I guess they meant 12PM California time......According to Jim's email should be here by 3......

I'm not feeling very patient at the moment.......

Understood, no fun waiting. I kept checking my tracking #, do you have one? It help feel in control, but still wander what the lil' thing is going through. Jim does a good job, so there should be no concern. Hopefully, its just a few mins away!!!!! Cant wait to hear the details!! :D :D

Truck arrives....I say you'll never believe what's in there....an octopus...Man says, I hope it's still alive cause it really got tossed around :shock: !!!

Same size as Lil Pumpking....

We're dripping and here's his first picture!!!!! :D Not real clear but his arrival shot!!!!

Awwwwww cute! :welcome: to the new arrival!

J

Awww is right. Congrats again and welcome. It looks to be size of Ochi and Mr.T's sib, so please keep me posted!!


8) :D 8) :D 8) :D

Sweet! :D :D :D Congrats!

So it turned out to be just $25? I guess I can get some amphipods with the money I was planning on spending for shipping.

I don't know if it turned out to be that price, missed it in the post, but congrats if it did. I had to pay shipping.

Turned out to be $58.00 with shipping. Inklet is in Inks tank and has explored every crevice. Right now he is sitting on the greencave, in a window watchin us! He inked right after he went into the tank. I took him out of the bag on my hand. Felt really strange!

I love the curiousity of a new octo! Seems like they try to figure out what we are as much as we are figuring out what they are up to!

So far so good!!

Carol

Carol,

I would say congrats, and we have sibs looking at thoose pics. Love Inklet's name. :D :D :D :D :D :D

Guess no amphipods...

Inklet is a great name! :D

Congratulations, Carol! (need a smiley for that, and a bimac, and an E. scolopes)

:welcome: Inklet! I just love that name and the pics, she looks so shy in the first..........wish I could just squeeze her cheeks and just kiss her on the lips!

She's a she, right?

Congratulations Carol, I hope it turns out to be a sibling. I've often wondered how well our octopuses are treated in shipping. I guess now we know. I was always afraid to ask and now I know why. Goodluck with the baby. John

So Inklet it is! Great name, and you must have a sibling, too.

One thing about it, ordering from Octopets means the little guy is shipped only once, so there's less stress.

Looking forward to more pics!
