Chia pets is a growing fad. Kids,adults, and the elderly seem to like them. Dont you think you'd like them. They have chia plants, chia animals, chia movie charactors. If you dont have one you can always get one in the future. They realy are fun to watch. Thier great decorations for inside the house,frontyard,backyard and as gifts for others.

I'm not trying to sell chia pets here. Despite my custom rank. I want to know your thoughts about them.Ch-Ch-Ch-Chia!

Really? Chias are back in style? Wow, I haven't heard much about them for about ten years. ^^; Maybe i'll start seeing them more now? (As for me, I'm more into cacti. =P )

If your lucky you might find a chia cactus.

Is there such a thing? o.O

Sorry I just looked. Your not lucky. I dont think there is one cause since these are for children too they might feel there might be acidents. But I found a site for cheap chia pets and cactus so you had some luck after all. You might like it.

Chia pets suck. They've overpriced terra cotta and..err..babys breath? I can't remember the plant, but it grows very fast, probably is a weed or cow feed or something.

Cacti are far better, yes. So are snake plants. And ferns. Alot of succulents..

Couldn't this whole thing have technically gone into the fad thread?

That's correct seeing as she did say they are back in.

Shes asking in this topic do people like them. Sure she can post there but I guess chia pets can have thier own topic. Oh Tron heres the fad link to post chia pets there.

Yes. So stop ruining the name of chia. Besides you did say your not sure if its real so maybbe he saw that? Also you started a parenthasies and didnt end. Anyways back on topic for me. Ri I found some chia trees would those be good enough?

Well, I don't exactly plan on buying anything, but that's kinda cool.

Ok. Hey Doc do you like chia pets? You never realy said(no pressure).

I dunno. Maybe a Chia Herb garden, but otherwise I don't see the point when I could have a perfectly good cactus. Minimal watering, and lots of light. Simple...

Or even owning an herb garden, they're easy to maintain and can be put in your house next to your sink. Practical -and- good looking! I dunno what the fad's all about, I personally could make my own Chia if I wanted to...>.>

You dont know what the fads about? I'll tell you then. Basicaly its a thing that grows very fast. Its fun to watch it grow. Plus they have all sort of animal,herb, and cartoon, and movie people made of clay. They have alot of looney toon characters. Simpson(cartoon). Shrek, Madisgascar. So its mainly bent toward children for those deseigns. But adults can enjoy them too. So basiacaly sfter it grows its great for neat decoration.

Erm... in simpler terms: A chia pet is a terra cotta figure, shaped like an animal, or a movie character, or a toon, or whatnot. The figure is hollow, and the outside is covered in ridges. You smear paste and seeds onto the outside, and dump water in the inside. The seeds grow into little bitty plants that cover the figure, making it poofy and green.
