    Hey Jenna, sorry for my absence the past couple weeks. Literally, the day my new frogs arrived, a lot of heavy personal issues happened, and I have been dealing with them. I made a couple posts earlier today, and added a couple video clips as well! The tads are doing just fine so far, and as of today, the only tadpole deaths, have been the ones I've taken out, to feed to the froglets, and also, so that the tad tank has more room for the larger tads to grow. Right now, there's about 50+ in the 20g tank. Burley at XenEx said I might want to keep only 1 tadpole per gallon. But I've decided, that since they are all doing so well, to let them stay in there, and as any metamorphoses start occuring, I will then do some more thinning out of the smaller/non-metamorphosing tads. This is the first timer I've ever had this much luck raising a batch of tads, they ALL have their hind leg buds already, and a couple of the larger ones actually have some pigmentation starting to show on the hind leg buds.
