On the day that I recieved my two new robotic predators, I had to work hard on my schoolwork. It even took till the evening. Well, when I do my school work, I like to hear background noise, whether it's music, my mom cooking, or the clunking of my vicious robots.

Well, later that evening, (there was still light outside, quite a bit) I let loose my brand new Zeppy (roboreptile) in my linoleum kitchen. (Which is the only area in my house that has a hard, smooth surface. The rest of my house is carpet.) My kitchen is surounded by the linoleum laundry room, the carpeted living room, and our carpeted breakfast room. The laundry room is open with the kitchen. My old robots always wandered in there. But this night, when I set Zeppy free, he never even saw the laundry room.

Well I set him loose in my kitchen, while I worked on my studies. Soon the robot's roars and clunks got fainter and fainter, until I could barely hear them at all. I got curious, and went to investigate. I was shocked to find the kitchen empty. (I do my school on the computer, and our computer is in the laundry room, so I knew he wasn't in there. I went into the breakfast room, no luck there. But then I tried the living room. I saw my little Zeppy over in the right corner of our dining table, (the living room and the dining room are one room) and he was trying to eat my fake plant!

Now, things we need to remember here. First of all, niether Reptile nor Raptor can walk on carpet. Second, and most important, they cannot turn on carpet.

Now I don't know how this happened, it's very strange.  If you could tell me if your reptiles have ever done this sort of thing, I think I'd understand. Thanks for reading!

PS Why on earth wa he eating a plant, he carnivore for Pete's sake!:)

PPSS If my raptor ever does something strange like this in her roams, you'll be the first to know.

Strange, maybey he walks better on carpet than you think, but that dosen`t explain why he tried to eat the leaf...

My reptile scoots just fine on various carpets that the raptor and V2 have trouble with.

I didn't know you had a reptile MrScott?
Now I did know that roboreptile could walk forward on carpet, but never EVER backward. He can do a little bit of that walk turn, but still not spectacular.

How do you like your reptile MrScott? Just give me your overall, personal description.


Just noticed this. Hey rybuger1, it appears that you and I became members on the same day, well, you know what I mean. I was allowed to stay on.
