    Exclamation Help please!!!!!!

    So I have been posting the last 2 days and have yet to get any replys and I need some help. My tadpoles are developing fast. 2 days ago 2 of our 11's front legs popped out...today their tails are almost gone and 1 of them is now out of the water. We have a small set up for the two and with in hours of first coming out of the water the one's tail is now almost gone and he is staying out of the water. Thankfully we got the new tank set up in time for him/her. But what now? I have food for him/her but where do I put it? In the water dish where is other 4 legged friend is? On the dirt? I have no idea. the other 9 still have only back legs...they seem content to stay that way and frankly as cool as the new frog is I can't handle more yet. I need to make sure he makes it first. Please tell me what I am supposed to do now...

    Give the tads space and easy access out of the water they are in. Like a 'landing zone'
    You can let them climb out onto very dampened paper towel substrate ( cover the bottom of the tank with the paper towel) .
    They will be too small to find a 'water dish'
    All water ( on the paper towel) should be de-clolorinated. Do no let the towel dry out.
    Feed them Hydei Fruit flies (and pin head crickets when they get a little bigger) -- dusted all feeders with calcium and vit D powder.

    Feed the tads a high quality tadpole food.

    Keep them cool! Not above 72 F.

    Thank you for your quick reply and the message. It does help a lot...but I still have lots of questions. I can't get over how cute these guys are just wish I had more time to learn. The 2 tadpoles are now fully out of the water. I had them in a separate container that was all land with a bowl of water for them to swim in and last night the 2nd on decided to climb out of the water. Neither is going to the water now. Or they aren't as far as I can tell. Where do I put the tadpole food? In the water? Or some where else in the container?

Size:  48.6 KBHere are a few pictures of the froglets and our set up the first is our oldest froglet...the one that came out of the water first. The second is the one that came out last night. The 3rd is a picture of our tadpole tank next to the froglet tank and the last is the froglet tank alone. Hard to see I know and I am sorry. Should I have a small container to put the food in? Will they find it? Do they still need the tadpole/frog food or something else. They are so tiny and I don't want to loose them. My kids are having a blast watching them change.
