Awesome experiment, Abby...I never knew how powerful vinegar could be.
Keep learning and reporting!

You have done a fine job documenting your experiment. You will make a great scientist one day. Keep up the good work!

You did a great job! Isn't that a really cool experiment? If you feel like doing it again, next time after all the shell is dissolved, put the squishy egg in a big container of white corn syrup and watch it for a few days. I think it'll be worth the effort!

Keep up the good work in science!

If you put it in a bigger cup with some more vinegar, will it keep getting bigger? How much bigger can it get? How much vinegar can it hold? What does it look like inside the egg? What does it smell like? Maybe have dad take it outside and cut it open?

Another great blog post! Thanks for sharing. I show these to my 8-year old son who thinks they are cool too.

I love your curiosity and desire to learn. I can't wait to see what you do next! And thank you to pshircliff for the suggestion that the egg get opened OUTSIDE!

I'd be curious as to the measurements of the size of the egg, and the mass of the egg. Maybe size in terms of volume of the egg.

Wow!! I am SO impressed with your experiment! I used to teach 3rd grade, but I never had a student do such a cool science project! Job well done!!!

Great job! I was going to leave a comment on your VT... but could not, so I will leave it here. Next time you do this experiment, put the egg into a water/maple syrup mixture after day four. See what happens!!!

What a great and interesting experiment! Great to see you learning on your own and not just doing the experiment but also researching why.... I wonder what would happen if you put the egg into a bowl of vinegar.... Would it keep expanding to the size of the bowl? Keep up the awesome work.

I like how you kept track of all of your observations AND did further investigation to find out why the vinegar caused that reaction. You are a budding scientist!

That was very interesting. I have never seen that before. I wish you had broken open the egg, so you could report on the smell. I wonder what it smells like!

Nice job! At the end it looks the way I would picture new dinosaur eggs to look and feel. Maybe your mom was afraid a Tyrannosaurus would hatch out in the house (which is never a good thing)!

Hello Abby,

Super job on using VoiceThread to report your observations, particularly the video commenting tool. I can't wait to see what other cools things you have planned for the future.

I am learning a lot from you. Your quest for knowledge is going to be the answer to your future.
I am so proud of you . . .
You have me wondering if im smarter than a third grader. . .
