    Default Thousands of Rana Catesbeiana...what to do...PLEASE HELP...ADVISE!!

    Hello all I have a bunch (thousands) of fresh Rana Catesbeiana tadpoles in my swimming pool. I’m for such they are the Bull frog; I listen to them every night, very loud!! I need to fish them out and I would like to sell them for some extra $$, but I’m not sure how to go about it, I would hate for most to all the bull frogs die, or get eaten by the parents, which are like 8” long and fat, the whole top of the water of the pool is nothing but tadpoles!!

    PLEASE HELP!!

    HA!!! the same thing happened to me 2 days ago, go check out the advice i got at :http://www.frogforum.net/general-dis...light=tadpoles , as for the cash, don't expect any thing. just save as many tad poles as possible and make sure that they are the healthilyest ones. keep them separate in tuba-ware enclosers with lots of space and feed them boiled letace.
    best of luck!

    Also I know might be a stupid question, but I read some said you can and some say you can't get warts from frogs or toads, from their pee, is said to carry the virus.

    So does frog or toad pee or some other amphibian carry the wart virus?

    I've been handling toads and frogs for over 10+ years and have never had warts.
