Over the past few months I've been growing tadpoles. We caught them on Rondebosch Common and since then they've been living in my bedroom. I feed them pondweed and fish food. First they grow back legs, then front legs, and then their tail disappears.
Once they grow front legs, Mommy and I put them in another container and then we release them. Some we've released in Mommy's pond at her school. Others we've given to Oupa to put in his pond. Oupa has a HUGE frog in his pond, and some fish, so I don't know if my frogs will be eaten by them or not, but Oupa loves frogs, so I want him to have lots.
Here are some photos of some of my tadpoles.
