Mexican Jumping Bean.... Hatched

The Mexican jumping bean I've had on my desk for the last 5 months (bought as a souvenir when I was re-routed home from Cincinnati via Dallas, Texas) finally hatched... the little moth flew off when I opened the lid, circled a light bulb and then got zapped by the insecticutor !! 5 months in a bean 30 seconds flying and then a milisecond of a million volts !!

I love the perfect little hole that he dug out of the bean.

When I brought htis back home my kids (and wife didn't believe me that there was anything in side., but there again I am known for practical jokes) I had to show them this Wikipedia article for them to believe me... nad now with it hatching out it proves the point !!
