Planarians

Ah yes, the most adorable of flatworms (Phylum Platyhelminthes, Class Turbellaria, Order Seriata, Family Planariidae).

I received a custom order for a planarian, and I remembered... I was going to make more of them for my shop!
(The purple is the custom order, the yellow will be available in my shop soon)

I think I'll make a rainbow assortment, some of them having extra heads - as all you biology students out there know, if you cut a planarian into pieces, it will grow back into several planarians! And if you slice the head in half, it will grow two heads. Like this:
I've made them for my shop before and they sold right away. I'll wait until I can buy more black plastic eyes, though, as I think they're much nicer than using felt circles.

So keep on the lookout! If you have a specific color or mutilation in mind for a custom order, just let me know.

That's funny, I always think of planerians when I curl my toes and put my feet together, it makes the shape of one of these funny looking critters.
