Best Answer

They have 5 'legs', like a five pointed star, and have a sort of fuzzy, bumpy flesh. Having held one before, I know that they come in many colors, such as purple.
Characteristics of a Starfish include:
1. Starfish bodies are highly flexible.
2. The starfish has no eyes, ears or nose and rely solely on their legs for almost everything.
3. Most starfish feed on slow-moving or stationary animals, such as: oysters, snails and clams.
