How long...?

[Jace]

Wish I could help you! My tadpole, whom I have affectionately named Poe, is still in the legless stage. Sigh. It shouldn't take too long, though. Maybe a couple of weeks to a month would be my guess. I would love to see some pics of your newly morphed frog-what are u feeding it? What are you keeping it in? I know, questions, questions!

I currently keep him in a ten gallon tank with a plant and a rock thing to hide under and a platform with a ramp he can climb up on which gives him access to lower water levels and to dry land. It is a very simple set up that i plan on making larger and more realistic as he grows. I have been feeding him bloodworms but now that he has all his legs he starts to absorb his tail so he will eat little to nothing at all. I will gladly take pictures but i am not sure how to post them, as i just joined this forum today.

If you go to your profile page, you can create a photo album or you can post using this thread. Just hit "Go Advanced" and use the "attachement" function. It will allow you to download from there. Poe is eating every flake of fish food, but is not fond of the bloodworms at all. For being a bullfrog, it sure is picky at this stage!

I have created an album and taken pictures but i am just trying to upload them to my computer so it'll be a couple of minutes... and i never tried flakes before wich probably would have been a good idea. I tried to feed him these store bought tadpole pellets but he never touched em. He devours the blood worms tho!

Gutloaded and dusted small crickets, any that are smaller than his mouth is wide. Baby frogs are voracious and need lots of food.

Congrats on you new little froglet! That is very exciting and didn't take very long at all. Still no sign of any legs on Poe, but he/she is an eating machine and loving the new Tetra Algae Vegetable Crisps I bought. I was worried that Poe wasn't eating properly as I couldn't find a shred of poo in the tank-until I moved the rock cave. Every morning Poe is in there and that is where all the poop is. So easy to clean-just like my geckos!
