Ahhh, Life With Boys (3)

For Christmas, one of our sweet aunts gave Collin a box of experiments to do. He was thrilled. First and foremost, he pursued what they called "Sea Monsters".
It hatched...it's disgusting...and thriving!
Looked on the Internet today to find out how long I have to look at this thing in my kitchen window...
Triops have a relatively short lifespan of 20 to 90 days and grow quickly to their adult length of one to three inches. How large they grow depends on the amount of light and food they receive. After hatching, they often double in size daily!
3 INCHES...90 DAYS....DOUBLE IN SIZE DAILY!!!!!

Ahhhh, Life With Boys!
