Hatched Tadpoles


Tadpoles developing in their cases.

One free swimming tadpole and one ready to hatch!

Free swimming, two days after hatching. Note the external gills.

The kids are thrilled to see them swimming and growing. So far, I have counted (roughly) 13 swimming tadpoles. They are hard to see, and they like to hide, this is a very rough count.
Maybe we will end up with more than 2 fully developed frogs, which is what we had last year.
