She then notices an egg stealer trying to take her egg and she hits him with her head, causing him to drop the egg which rolls away from the nest. Along with her parents, she follows it and watches the egg as it hatches into a baby boy longneck, whom she names him Littlefoot and starts licking him with love and puts him on her back telling him to be careful.

A few years later, Littlefoot's Mother is feeding him tree roots to which he asks her if "that's all there is to eat."
