Sounds like a tough situation.Is the water area big? If not, maybe they won't lay the eggs in the water. I've heard of frogs in amplexus for no reason. Hopefully this is the case.

There is not enough water in there for them to lay eggs. They are still in amplexus this afternoon. If I put them in a rain chamber tonight, would it be appropriate to released the eggs into a pond behind my house? All my frogs were WC from the area, (not by me) and Atlas actually very likely came from that pond. This is given that she is actually gravid. She's always been a fairly large and sometimes overweight frog, so it's hard for me to tell. I was honestly worried recently that she was getting overweight again, especially with my kids exclaiming how fat she is last week.

Disturbing amplexus may frighten them enough that egg laying won't happen. You could put a bigger water dish in there and increase the humidity. It is your call. I think that raising tads would be a fun project for you and your kids though. They take a few days to hatch so thats plenty of time to gather supplies. If you do raise them i recommend releasing the froglets in a few different pond to kind of increase the gene pool.
I know what your going through. Angus has been croaking ALOT lately and has developed nuptial pads. I love him but he does have a handicap which i don't want getting passed down. Plus they're both too young to mate safely and ill probably end up killing the tads.

Tad care is a big fear for me. We had toad tads once several years back and ended up re-releasing them when they started dying off quickly. I had no idea how to care for them then though, and have a pretty good idea now. I'm just a serious planner/researcher and anything that catches me off guard with my frogs makes me panic lol.
