Benedicta

[salix]

Yesterday I got my first benedicta "frogpole"! It popped it's front legs and they look good. The egg hatched on 4/1. There are two more with elbows starting to show.

They are pretty amazing little frogs, they've been colored up like adults for the last month. I know, pictures...........just too lazy to take them and upload them.

Hi guys, are you raising the tads or letting the parents raise them? I tried raising a few myself, but never had any luck with it. I'm curious to hear if anyone else has tried successfully and what methods they used.

A good friend of mine is raising them himself with good success. I'm afraid I don't know his feed.

I've raised/raising a couple dozen. I feed Patrick's tad food and new life spectrem pellets with great luck. I've never had sls using these foods. I've left a few in the tank that the parents transported, but they never morphed. I'm only getting about 75% hatching from the eggs though.
