I noticed a small patch of clear looking "something" on both of my new leopard frogs, is this normal? I looked up a few questions online and discovered that tadpoles do in fact shed their skin but it could not tell me what it looks like or when they start shedding or anything useful at all for that matter... Please help! If these little guys are starting to grow some kind of fungus then I need to know how to treat them. The tadpoles are eating and moving around normally, or at least one of them is eating for sure. I just got them 3 days ago so the second one has not started eating yet. I think the tadpoles are just about to start morphing as they have what look to be hips forming on the rear end of of their body right before the tail. If anyone has a useful web page that details the tadpole shedding please help me wiht that info. Also, if there is a know fungus that looks clear and grows on Leopard Frogs, please fill me in. These are my first ever tadpoles so I have no idea what to expect from them. I don't want to lose my babies, someone please help me!? I wish I could post a pic of them, I will re-examine them in the morning and update the post accordingly. Thank you again!
