Thread: Tadpoles!

    Update on Tapdpoles!!
    Okay, well today I was going out, and I glanced in the bucket and guess what...their all dead!!
    Haha just kidding, but it's so cool, they are on to the next stage in their development now!! Instead of just being all tail, now they have little round bodies, with a small tail attached. It's so awesome, and their swimming around lots more and being way more active.
    Just to keep you posted,

    YAY! I knew you could do it! When they start to get their little leggies and arms they look so cute- but then they start to look silly as their tail shrinks!

    I agree with Jessica, YLY, and everyone. . its a very cool experiment, and I'm SURE the babies had a much better chance at surviving with your help than drying up in a puddle. I remember when I was 5 or 6, we lived on acreage and we had a few tadpole puddles in the spring. When they would start to dry out, I'd drag the hose or a bucket of water over and fill up all of their puddles so they could live. Of course, my parents did not like this because that meant more loud frogs and toads everywhere tadpoles are adorable, though. . its so awesome to watch them grow! have you named them?

    Yes, putting them back where they came from would be a good idea, but if you ant to know how to change the water you can look on numerous websites about tadpole care. I raised tadpoles and learned that if you let the water get really dirty and then change it it is too much of a shock for them and they will most likely die. moral of the story leave tadpoles in their natural environment.



    Thanks Devon (flamepony12) for the
    Sig!

    puggy, the majority agrees with whalelover, that it was a good idea to take them out of the ditch.

    I know puggywuggles personally, and I know that she wasn't trying to start anything. She probably hasn't read through the entire thread. She probably won't even come back to this thread, okay?

    Fur&Feathers, seriously, just because some people don't agree with you doesn't mean you should throw a temper tantrum and continue to harass them and somehow relate this to beating dogs!? Everyone has their different opinions and views. Just leave it at that, my Gawd

    GROW UP.


    FYI, I don't care to recieve immature and unecessary PM's from you, either. 99% of your posts so far have been controversial and arguements... I've seen one post about your dog.
