    I really like on her back...see it? it's upside down. What's her personality like? I know my new bumble bee has been named Sparky due to his jumpy unpredictable self.

    Yes I loved her.

    Just got her home this morning so i haven't figured out her personality yet, but she seems to have quite the personality for a ball. I know they are more known for hiding more than anything but ever since the lights went out she is all over the place exploring her new home. very very docile she didn't back away at all when I first picked her up to put her in her terrarium, although she did ball up when i set her in it.

    I have a female pastel like that...thinks she's a tree boa or something, climbs around at night. I would let it come to you then over a few days, I usually just ask the question to myself after a day or two and it just "clicks".

    New BP's tend to roam for a few days whilst they get settled into their new home, when they are predominantly in their hides during the day and come out at night it's a good sign that they may have settled

    My BP's names:
    Bumblebee - Cairo
    Het GS - Cheyenne
    Albino - Calais
    Spider - Castiel
    Het Albino - Claus (Pronounced as Klaus)
    Pastel - Calypso (little bit feisty)
    Mojave - Chaos
    Lesser - Still to be named (got her and the mojave last night)

    I like the name Saffron (Saffy) for a female pastel as it is apt for the colouring and a cute and quirky name. Ember or Amber?

    Totally in the same boat. I have a small female Pied that needs a name as well! My normal ball was Loki.

    I like Amber and Saffron

    I am going to give it a couple more days and see if anything sticks with me. I like to do strange names. My beardies are Torque and Diesel (both were supposed to be males but Torque ended up female) and my Dessert Striped King is named Java (for two reasons, one because of the brown coloring, she is almost a light coffee color, and two because she never stops you would think im keeping pure caffeine in her water bowl to soak in!)

    0.1 Dessert Striped King Snake
    1.1 Bearded Dragon
