I'm pretty sure this guy hitched a ride with us from Texas to Louisiana. I had caught a grasshopper yesterday and was showing it to the food truck ladies when it jumped into the truck and disappeared. Today it started raining and I grabbed Sheryl's show bag to discover a grasshopper hanging out on it. Was it the same grasshopper? There's no way to know, but I'd like to think so.I gave him some grass and water. He wasn't so much interested in the grass as he was the water. Then, when he found out there was gatorade on the table, he dashed over to it and started slurping it up. Kirbie named him Jiminy. People pointed out that Jiminy was a cricket, not a grasshopper. Meh.I picked him up a few times and was surprised that he didn't even try to jump away. I was starting to think he was injured and couldn't jump. Later, Chyann in the pit tried to hold him and he took off. I was disappointed, but that meant his lack of jumping before was his choice. Or something.Anyway, that's about it for today, thanks for having a look.
