4 Days ago i took a 7cm strand of toad (bufo bufo) eggs from a clutch of about 500 i had as there was overcrowding and water started to smell....they was in an hourglass shape when collected 4 days ago...(picture below)
^^That was them...i put them in a smaller container with shallow water and left them alone in my bedroom...i went into check on them today and this is what i found...
They are outside of the protective jelly but there ''heads'' are still On them...but they are not inside the jelly any longer there on the outside..They are like...TINY black peapods....and they wag there tails like a dog...they flick them everynow and again making them move..i dont know why they do this but i know they are suppose to! I can see theyre teeeny tiny gills...
!
Questions!!
Is this my tadpoles hatched? I meen i know to feed them when they begin to swim but is them hatched now? IM soo excited..
I have boiled lettuce and calcium mixed in together in an icecube tray like i was told...do i thaw out the lettuce or just drop a frozen cube in? IM SOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!
I can-not believe i had all them eggs for 8 days nothing happened i had these for 4 days and theyve hatched!!
