Omg My 3 Yr Old Over Fed.

[snowflake311]

About 2 hr after I did a big wc I had to do another.

My 3 year old loves to feed things. She feeds the dogs and now my fish.

Cleaning the mess

 

[helterskelter]

Your have to put the food some where safe now!

Hope everything is ok though.

 

[snowflake311]

We caught her in the act so the food was not in there long. Yes I have to hide the food some place high or lock it up.

 

[coldcazzie]

Haha wow! it's like a snowfall of food...

It's so easy for kids to do that, they don't understand about quantities. We raised some frogs from eggs when I was little, and we were feeding the froglets on tinned cat food. My mum said I could feed them, and now I know they probably died from.ammonia poisoning after I put in half a tin... I felt awful, but I had no idea that that wasn't an appropriate amount of food until afterwards when she showed me how much I should've put in. And I was much older than 3...

 

[snowflake311]

Yeah I think it was more fun for her to see the flakes fall in the tank. I was getting worried the fish in this tank where getting enough food.

Happened to me too a couple of weeks ago.

 

[Dieses Madchen]

My husband did that!!

 

[Caprichoso]

Wow, the fish must of thought they had died and gone to heaven . Good thing you discovered it or that's exactly where they would've gone

My (at the time) 3-year-old daughter thought my fish would like some Cream of Wheat (pablum) so poured in a whole box! The only thing that survived was a pleco.

 

[Neomeris]

Uh-oh. I don't think Cream of wheat is very good for fish.

 

[This Old Spouse]

Not so much ...

What's cream of wheat when it's at home then?

 

[This Old Spouse]

Think Reddie Brek, but with wheat instead of oats.

Oh my word The last supper
