We're down to one tadpole :( But he's a big boy, and is sooo active.
His new digs:

[TheCrysCat]

haha xD

[DoNotDeclaw]

lol, I wasn't sure what I was looking at, at first. What species will the tadpole grow into?

[TheCrysCat]

African Dwarf Frog :D

Oh, he looks good! When did he hatch? What are you feeding him?

I miss all my ADF tads. ;-;

[TheCrysCat]

He hatched... well, we're not sure. My mom's figures that his one week birthday is tomorrow, and she found them all in the frog tank on saturday. We're currently feeding him very finely ground frog food.

Soooo cute! I couldn't see him at first, he was so tiny!

[TheCrysCat]

And he's way bigger than he used to be! They were soooo tiny last saturday.

Yeeek, that's why you're losing them! ;_; They pretty much only eat live, meaty foods for the first like half-month (or more) of their lives. I would go out and see if you can find frozen baby brine shrimp (nauplii) to keep him going until you can hatch some live... or perhaps he'll eat the frozen, but that's unlikely. They're sight predators.

I've also heard you can feed them boiled egg yolk.
