MY SEASHELL By: Lauryn Cutler

Babylonia Japonica Shell My shells name is an Native American shell. As you can tell. My shell is approximately 2 inches long and 2 ½ inches wide.

Did An Animal Live In It? My shell was the home of the hermit crab. It is one of the best homes for a hermit crab. Your might be thinking to yourself why is this the best home for the hermit crab it provides a save environment for them. It hides them from there pray which is very important.

Its Pattern It pattern is sort of like a giraffe because, of it spots. This shell comes in many different colors & designs.

Going Back In Time!!! The only history I could find on the Babylonia Japonica shell was that it was found in the Indian ocean. There was no say who found it so I’m thinking it was a Native American.

Is It Rare?!? The Babylonia Japonica shell is not that rare in India most shells they find are the Babylonia Japonica shell. In America they are somewhat rear it depends on the location/beaches you go to.

Hardness/Shininess To tell the hardness of my shell I dropped it from a high altitude to see if it would crack or chip or maybe even brake but, it didn’t. To tell its shininess I glared it in the light the light. It kind of hurt my eyes. Rates Hardness:10 Shininess: 9 ½

How it feels My shell feels very smooth. You can tell it is smooth because of how it looks. It’s soft as a baby bottom.

Use It My shell can be used for all types of thing such as jewelry,beads, and decoration. You could use it for so much just the look gives your jewelry, beads and decorations a certain Bam Boom.

Why I LOVE It? The reason that I like my shell is because it is different from all the other shell. It’s sort of like me loud, fun, and unique. If my shell could tell a story it would probably be a story about being yourself that’s why I LOVE MY SHELL. ( Just Being Meh)
