Day Twenty-Nine: The Pitter Patter of Tiny Feet

March 31, 2008

March 31: No, not pregnancy – but legs! More than one of the tadpoles have begun to grown legs. One with fairly welly formed legs at this stage has been photographed (see photograph 2 below) but at least one other has been spied with the development of legs. It quite exciting! Their bodies are beginning to form inside their transparent skin. You can clearly see a split between the head and the body.

Also we have new additions to the tank: several tiny snails, which are extremely good at hiding.
