Candy Cane baby

[dppitone]

Maybe this candy cane is dropping a new baby, to make a new skeleton -

Cool. My Candy's have never done this. But they split quite a bit.

One of my Christmas Favias is doing the same thing, and always assumed it was reproduction in action. Do you know the proper or scientific name for this phenomena?

 

[dppitone]

no, it's the first time i've noticed it happening. i was hoping someone knowledgable would chime in with more facts.

 

[Reef Frog]

Now that I think about it, Frogspawn do this too, and that's a fact. Got one right now. If there is no recognized scientific name, I propose "Baby Goober. "

 

[dppitone]

it would be cool if that in fact was by coincidence the actual scientific name. there was an adult "goober" on the andy griffith show - he worked at the gas pumping station.

My old candy cane did the same thing. It is a little baby. I stuck mine to a frag plug and it grew before i sold it.

Did it begin to grow a skeleton?

Did it begin to grow a skeleton?

It did, slowly but surely. It had somewhat of a hard skeleton when it fell off and it grew from there. Wish i had pictures of it. Yours too should have some skeleton attached to the fleshy part.
