Breeding Xenopus laevis

[tgampper]

If you listen carefully, you may hear a duet between your frogs. The male has at least 4 different calls and the female has 2. The female will respond to the male's advertisement call depending her readiness to mate. If the female is ready, she will emit a rapping call that is very similar to the male. If she is not ready, she will emit a quiet sound (much like that of a ticking clock), when the male hears the tick, he will immediately stop calling. If they both rap, you may have some little ones on the way

Last night my Clawed frogs have layed eggs.

What should I feed te tadpoles? Can I use crushed spirulinatablets (I eat/swalow it to) and algeatablets?

Some have already hatched, can i feed them pure algea to? I counted only 7 fertile ones.

take the parent's reptomin sticks and hbh/zoomed frog bites and grind them with a mortar and pestle until they are a very fine dust. This is a great tadpole food

But I dont´t have that, I don´t know if they sell it in Belgium. In my books about frogs they say, grinded algea, grinded nettle and grinded fishfood.

I have at least 9 tadpoles, I removed the bad eggs. I am gonna try the spirulina and algeatablets, will grind them to dust. So I need to start feeding when they start swimming? I have some white ones but most are dark in colour.

It looks like they are growing well. I have 6 dark ones and 4 white ones. Are the white ones albino or is this a new colour, leucistic?
