Hi,

About a month ago I took some frogspawn out of my fish pond and took it

into
my classroom at school for the kids to watch grow. I put it in a small

glass
tank and the kids have really enjoyed caring for them.
However the tadpole have seemed to just stopped growing!
I can see clearly see thier eyes, mouth ect but no sign of any legs yet. I
have been giving them some flake fish food that we give the goldfish which
they seem to enjoy.

Any ideas how we can get them to grow! how long does it take?

Im sure last years taddies didnt take this long!

Many thank

Cheryl


It depends on the type of the tadpole. Some of them dont' get legs until
their second year!
