You have come to the Notebook of Deshi and Himitsu. Please do not post unless you have their permission.
This Icicle egg was received by Deshi on January 14th, 2005:
~ - - - - - ~
Over a week past till Pika at last found someone to take care of the egg. A girl named Deshi had volunteered so Pika was going to give her the egg this very moment. Earlier when Pika had taken it out of the freezer, she was dismayed to see the icicle casing was almost gone. 'It was a good thing I found someone now!' she thought to herself. Deshi would probably have a puff pretty soon if the melting was any indication~! Spotting Deshi, she almost ran to her to pass off the egg.
"Keep an eye on it! It looks fit to melt into a puddle~!" Pika exclaimed with excitement on her face ^_^
~ - - - - - - - - - - ~ About Icicles Icicles are ice that forms in the shape of a narrow cone hanging point down. Water descends from above and drips off, leaving part of itself behind as ice. The hanging drop at the tip, before it separates, is losing heat to the air (partly by conduction, but mostly by evaporation), so some is frozen to the outside. This leaves a shell of ice on the outside and water inside. In fact you will find that the water-filled cavity may extend a long way up into it. The water may get to the tip by flowing down the outside as well. In this case, the icicle thickens because the water freezes to the outside. This process leads to the common tapering form of icicles. Icicles are commonly attached to the undersides of eaves, roofs, undersides of cars and other places where water runs off in the winter.
Care of egg:
Please try and keep it cold X3
It should hatch in 5-10 days :3
Update: Hatched January 21st, 2005 whee
