Post Posted: Fri Feb 09, 2007 9:01 am   A gift arrived in the mail for Sheba & Siobhan.....

.....from Scripta_elegans from this board! She sent many pond plants (anacharis, duckweed) for Sheba & Siobhan. Even Siobhan came out of his usual hiding place to check out his new anacharis jungle! I caught some video action of all of this & put up on Youtube.com so I can share with you guys:

I love the noise these thick leaves make when Sheba eats them :P

I think Sheba ate too much :lol:

The crunch video is actually with water lettuce. The duckweed is the little tiny green plants. that was so cute! I am delighted both the kids enjoyed the plants!

Awesome video!

We got our Anacaris 4 weeks ago I think, and Sputnik devoured it all within a day. So I didn't get any pics. :-)

Yes, Thank you so much for sending!!!!!

All the plants are gone now. Siobhan finished off the last of the anacharis yesterday (yes, he ate almost all the anacharis by himself....that little hungry muncher.....) LOL!
