Raising Horseshoe Crabs in my Classroom

Fascinating! I raised toads for 3 years once - got them from the pond the day they hopped out when they were teeny tiny little toad lets. We weighed and measured them every month and tracked their growth as part of an amphibian research study being done at our Aquarium. I worked in the school library at the time so the whole school helped feed them by collecting woodlice and worms and cockroaches for them in their lunch containers. It was a fabulous project. Now I have a box turtle as a class pet - also a fun animal for the kids to have :)

Glad to have you on board, Lynn. Your toad and turtle projects sound pretty interesting. Class pets can be a lot of work, but the rewards outweigh the time and energy spent ... most of the time ;-).
