Chomp Chomp has Grown Up!


It was like popeye downing a can of spinach. It was Chomp Chomp chomping down the iron tree's leaves. It was like the Hulk growing larger, becoming greener, and shedding all clothes except those elastic pants. It was Chomp Chomp shedding those baby green pyjamas and putting on the armour meant for adult hardcore grasshoppers aka known as locusts. Yeah, the ones you see on TV in flying in swarms, decimating crops that lay in their path. When I thought Chomp Chomp had fallen prey to the birds or rats, it has actually grown so quickly into a fine adult. It has also learnt to fly but was really nasty when I tried to get near it today. I say its time to send in the StarShip Troopers!

Are you sure its the same grasshopper that u have take photo of? Wah! they do grow so fast! Perhaps must be the leaves and grass in your garden that makes them the "incredible hulk"? or perhaps the machine that is used in the movie "Honey i blew the grasshopper". By the way why is that grasshopper named chomp chomp since it is an adult now its time to give it a new name...

Did you change your name when you grew up? :) The adult Chomp Chomp is now called Chomp Chomp Senior! It's a really nasty bug!
