Operation Ribbit: Part Three

Extra! Extra! Read all about it!

Just wanted to tell you some awesome news.  Eggy’s growing his back legs!  Great news, eh?  I think it started somewhere like three days ago. 

My brother Eli’s observations are: “I noticed he was zig zagging a lot.  And, I watched him eat a lot. And, I like his name, Eggy. Oh, one more thing. Do you have a pet? A cat or a frog or a tadpole or a dog?”

That was just some of Eli’s opinions on Eggy.  He also wants to ask, “What does your pet do? And does he have food or dog biscuits if your pet is a dog or fish food if your pet is a fish.  And one more thing.  My brother, Miles, loves science and I love him very much.”

We shall put up a photograph as soon as possible.

Operation: Ribbit

I have a new pet around the house and his name is Eggy.  It arrived just today! He is a tadpole.  The great thing about Eggy is that he lives in water his whole life, and when he grows his front arms, we can stop feeding him.  The reason for that is because his tail will be shrinking inside his body and that’s where he’ll get his nutrition.

 
Here is a picture of us preparing the tank. I am adding the blue sand to the bottom, and the little plant decoration is already added.  My little brother Eli is with me.

And here is a picture of Eggy himself. He is in the middle, next to the tree.  Eggy is a great pet and I hope he lasts a long time. We are also going to observe Eggy’s growth and we’ll keep doing blog entries on him so you can follow his progress.
