    Question Whites Tadpoles, Possible Problem?

    I have noticed a slight problem with my Whites Tree Frog Tadpoles.

    There seems to be a bend in the tails of 2 of them. I have taken some pics to show what I mean.

    They seem to be healthy, growing large and unaffected by this abnormality, and it is only in 2 of them so far.

    Their tiny legs are beginning to grow, and from what I can tell it hasn’t effected their brand new limbs.

    Is this normal? Is it bad? What can I do?

    They are defective. If they morph out, and they may or may not, they will have crooked spines. There is nothing you can do for them. Out of a given spawning a few will usually be like this but high numbers of deformed tads indicates some type of problem.

    Thanks my man.

    I think they will morph out, they have been like this for a while and they are growing there limbs... will they be defective as frogs??

    The others seem fine, it's about 2 out of 20.. so i guess it's just luck.

    Thanks for the answer bro, God bless and merry Christmas
