    I wasn't to keen on the fly thing either but when I saw that they were flight less I thought what the heck.My froglets are all only simi captive the only really intervention by me was feeding them. There parents found a wheel barrow and a 10 gallon fish tank in our backyard. During a 5 day rain storm we had a couple of months back suitable to breed in . So most of the ones in the wheel barrow are just kinda wondering off and hopefully finding food I haven't yet seen any dead. But there is a lip on the fish tank so they really can't just hop off. I have also set up bog wood for the morphing tads so they can get up out of the water but like I said once they get strong enough or big enough to jump 4 to5 inchs they to will wonder off. That's where first off pinheads were to big and they were small and also surrounded by water a lot of them drowned .But the flightless flies have pretty good legs on them and cruz around the wood and don't fall in to the water and drown and were suprizingly easy to put in tank and stayed there till all were eaten no escapies. I think after all is said and done I may just keep several of them to breed next year but. The rest once there full n ready will be released and hope some keep coming back. Each situation is different but they sure did gobble up those flies n I had tried many other things . If you try out sping tails and the gobblem up let me know. Thanks bye

    One is out of the water. He is currently eating pinheads.

    Anyone know the answer to my second question in my main post?

    Hey toitle! How's it been going? Sounds like its been going well.Glad to hear your tads have started there morphing process and that there eating pinheads.On my end things are going pretty good to but am still having a couple of problems here and there.Here's one of my problems as I've said before my frogs are pretty much free to roam away when there feeling up to it.which is a problem on its own but some of my little friends have meet untimly deathes by jumping out of the wheel barrow a little to soon or maybe just to wet.ONce they make there leap of faith and they hit the concrete it sucks them dry and if I don't find them quick enough there turned in to froglet chips.It has been a little hectic as this can happen in a matter of minutes.So I've been trying to keep it moist and I do a lot of checks day an night. I have also done a couple of releases of 25 to30 froglets down by the creek bed.I have also picked them off the lawn and spread them out all around the front and backyard where there's stuff for them to eat.So needless to say I've been quite busy with these frogs and probably still have 200 maybe 300 hundred left to morph but were getting close. I think I'm might keep 4 of them for next years spawn. Goodluck with your froglets thanks for listening.It nice to have a place to unload. Lol
