Dwarf African Clawed Frogs - Tadpoles

mcdilll Mar 14, 2005 08:09 AM

I am new to this group and also to Dwarf African Clawed Frogs. I
saw some aquababies frogs at a mall at Christmas and thought they were cute so I bought 2 of frogs. I didn't know what their sex was when I bought them but now I know I have a male and a female. My female laid eggs on February 24. The next day I moved the tadpoles to another container. Can you over feed tadpoles? I was wondering if it is normal for the tadpole stomach to pooch out after they eat. I feed my tadpoles live baby brine shrimp 2 times a day. I read that a lot of people say to feed them 3-4 times a day. I am scared that if I feed them more times a day that their little pink stomachs will explode and they will die.

Also, at what age will you be able to see their feet and arms start growing. The tadpoles (20-30) are so small that I have to look with a magnifine glass to see any detail in their bodies.

Thanks in advance for any help that you can give me.
