My summer with eggs, tads, and froglets

[deranged chipmunk]

I started with the Black Water Extract because I needed something fast when this all started and Almond Leaves were no where to be found locally so I decided on the Black Water which was recommended by Black Jungle. The extract helps prevent bacterial infection in the tads. I put enough to the water to get it to the point of looking like a dark tea. It has done me well so i haven't changed.

I have about 30 Tads in individual cups now since I found out that once one or two start popping out legs they secrete a chemical that stunts the growth of the other tads.... was wondering why some grew and some stayed tiny tads so long. Now they all seem to grow at a similar rate.

Thanks Don. You're not the first person i have seen use black water extract. But you are, however, the only person who actually was able to say WHY they used it. Normally i get because so and so said to use it. And i didn't know about them secreting chemicals to prevent others from developing. That's actually a pretty cool survival mechanism when you think about it.
