    The hardest part is keeping some distance when you are so intrigued and excited for some eggs/tads!

    Earlier in the week we had a nasty cold spell and drop in temperature, which may be the reason why 3 of my tads didn't make it.. The only one that made it was the one that first popped out of the egg. His/her eyes are noticeable now, and is about 4 times the size as the previous pictured tads.

    I heard them calling for the first time ever this morning when i went in to feed them, they were going crazy, so hopefully i have another clutch within the next few days.

    Still haven't seen a new clutch. It has gotten cold here. The frog room may have dropped a degree overall, but I am starting to think that slight dip has stopped them for the season. I might pump the heat up a bit and see if I can't keep them going year round. Still lots and lots of calling so we will see.

    Maybe a space heater in the room?

    I have 1 space heater running. Temps in the tanks are still up in the mid 70's, but something has calmed all the frogs down. I have stepped up misting because the heater is zapping the humidity from the room.

    It is also possible that I am impatient lol. It has been 3 weeks since the last clutch so maybe patience is needed lol.

    Yeah, the dry air outside and the heat running constantly inside does a number on the humidity...I have gone from misting maybe once a day to misting 3 times a day. I am going to get my humidifier running in the room with the red eyes too hoping the ambient humidity will help maintain theirs a little better, less spikes and drops then.

    Still no luck with eggs. They have started laying eggs like crazy again. I have one clutch I pulled from the tank to try and care for on my own and this caused the frogs to lay another clutch 5 days later. So right now I have 4 eggs that I pulled and 7 eggs in the new clutch in the tank.
