Well, the last clutch I posted about, molded. Then team Yellow produced this clutch a week ago, which again molded... This led me to give the frogs their first dose of Vit A supplement.

On the 25th I discovered the next clutch

Same eggs on the 28th. Seeing the black line on the top egg raising hope...
Image

Same eggs today. :eek:
Image


That was the good news. The bad news: Team Blue is composed of 4 calling males. I might be able to trade a male for a female early next year - fingers crossed...

The two tadpoles have disapeared
Image

A few weeks ago, I added a pesto jar covered in silicone and peat as I witnessed them having issues fitting in a film canister as a pair.

Last time I checked, it contained a clutch of five eggs. Today I found a lonely tadpole. I did not witness any transporting from the parents. I do not get enough eggs from my frogs to raise it by hand. I decided to put it in a shot glass and place it near a place one female hides. We will see if she notices and raises the tad.

My free time consists of monitoring the brom axils like a maniac with a torch, hoping to get a glance of another tadpole...

Update on the solanensis: it's their dry season. But I found these today
Image

Pesto jars have been working nicely for me as deposit sites.
The Andresi tad I put in a shot glass back in the tank is not beeing cared for by the adults. I actually saw one female trying to eat it while it was swimming in circles in it's glass - she shot her tongue at the glass while the tad passed.
I tried to raise two tads from another clutch - they did not make it...

More coming soon...
