There is a high probabilty that fungus will be inside the shell of the nut, especiallly since we here on the east coast have had so much rain.

Cool, I never thought of legos as a toy for them. Hmm... now just to try to convince my 7yr old to let me borrow some to try... that may be trickier then i expect.
