What do you call an upside down grasshopper?

Hayden caught a grasshopper yesterday and of course put it in one of the 900 bug containers we have on our back porch.

He brought it in just a second ago and said…

“You know what, mom? All my grasshoppers always want to turn upside down. They always like doing that.”

I said…

“Ah man, I think your grasshopper is dead, Hayden. Why don’t you go dump him out in the back yard and go catch a new one!”

He says…

“No, it’s not dead, Mom. I read on a grasshopper blog that grasshoppers really like to just turn over backwards. That’s what they like a do.”

So I guess we’ll keep his dead grasshopper for a while.
