Who knows maybe after the new Fraggles are hatched the Fraggle Horn is blown for all the inhabitants of Fraggle Rock to celebrate the newborns!
I just had to ROFL on this. "Welcome to the Rock!" BOOOM! Way to welcome newborns -- by deafening them! LOL. :big_grin:

Well, if it proved that Fraggles lay eggs and it's already obvious that they're fur-bearing, does that mean that the Fraggles are like platapuses?
Hmm...maybe they are! Anything is possible in the Fraggle World! :smile:

I guess I could extend this ridiculous story by adding that maybe they had tiny baby Fraggle sillynoise-muffs. Which actually brings us to another question, how do the Fraggles hear without ears? :confused:

Well, their aquatic natures may have given them something akin to snake or frog ears ... a drum on the surface. After all, external ears would create needless drag (though, their googly eyes are still a problem ... maybe that is why Boober and others have none?).

I think he has them farer up on his head than over fraggles and they are so keen he can see pass his hair :3. But in my mind there is more than one breed of fraggle, and Boober's kind are a bit like sheepdogs, you would think they can't see but their hair is lighter and more fluffly than a everyday fraggles :smile:.
Anyway, frogs have googly eyes and they do just fine :smile:.
I think fraggle ears are more like duck ears...

If only that were true, because the actual puppets of Boober--and likewise, SideBottom--literally have NO eyes.

The puppets do but we are talking about if they were real animals :wink:. And Boober acts like he can see in great detail so if he was real he would have eyes IMHO :smile:

Point taken. Also if he were real, he'd probably be a fan of The Beatles, because of his voice and hairstyle, just like Jess Harnell (Wakko Warner) is a fan of John Lennon & Ringo Starr, the two Beatles Wakko's voice is patterned after.

Well, he might not be actually. Remember if they were real and the tv show was not just a tv show, but just recordings of their everyday lifes, he would not have ever been to Outerspace where the Beatles were known. Where as Wakko is a 'silly creature' of outer space who grew up on radio there :wink:. Unless the Land Of Carpets thingie happened once before when he was little and his parents saw a picture of that hairstyle...or any picture from that time really, I think the hairstyle was even bigger than the music in places ....

As for egg colors I think fraggle eggs are earthy grays, silvers,blacks, and blues to blend in with cave rocks and water so they don't get eaten by bigger animals :smile:

Or crushed by their own kind during all that dancing and singing.

Well, that's why they would put them in safe out of the way nests, not in a big pit in the middle of the main cave *lol*.
I think they can be careful when they want to :smile:. Their eggs could also be a hard as rocks after they are laid, and the babies could have a very very strong egg tooth that falls out after they are hatched :3
