I loved the honest alligators. They could have had a little snack! I'm glad Egg (now a little bird) has someone watching over her. 💕

[superpyrrhocorax]

that was SO ADORABLE, I was rooting for the egg and eggfriend the whole time and they came through okay!! it's really impressive that you made this whole film yourself too, you should be proud!!

[charlierowen]

So cute!! You animated Fern so well, watching her blossom into a full character was amazing, honestly I kinda teared up near the end ☺️💙

I'm glad there wasn't a bad plot twist, and that the lizard really did want to eat the egg

[Omnywrench]

This is super cute and really well animated! I really liked the fight scene especially. Though I must admit, I thought the ending was going to be a twist where it turned out the egg belonged to that lizard, and he was simply trying to pick it up to move it somewhere and the little rabbit thing mistakenly thought he was trying to eat it.

I was half expecting the egg to break open at the end and reveal a little red lizard, but I'm glad everything turned out ok. Very nice animation!

super cute! Not sure what kind of mammal that creature was, but she was very kind. The froggies were very adorable too!

Aah!! Congratulations on finishing! This is so beautiful and precious! The movements are so fluid and you animated your characters with such a range of expressions and emotions! The background art is wonderful and the music, sounds, and voice-acting are lovely too. It all came together so well! Beautiful work!!! <3

Every single angle looked good especially when the crocigator was shaking its head and whenever the camera moved around the character it looked so 3D it looked professional!

Oh, I loved it 🥲 It’s so wonderful to see your creature designs in motion! Everyone has so much character and charm. The little chick ended up SO adorable (and made me wonder if they’re some kind of choro!)

[victoriaahlers]

This is so good Ellie! So cute and very well done, great job getting it finished and out there!💕🥚

[glowworm]

This was so lovely. The music is perfect and the voice actress for the main character has a lovely, gentle voice. The tiny frog who recognized the egg was my favorite!

[epicdeadchannel]

This is really nice and smooth animation. The background colors blend beautifully
