Many people, when taking care of African Clawed Frogs, realize there are eggs in their cage at one time. This article will tell you what to do if you want to raise the eggs.
Step 1
Separate the eggs from the adults! If you do not the adults will most likely eat their own eggs. It is best to put all of the eggs in one tank half full with an airstone in it.
Step 2
Wait for the eggs to hatch (2-3 days). In another 2 to 3 days the tadpoles will swim freely. When the tadpoles begin to hatch you should count them. You can never remove a tadpole with a net. A good way to move and count them is in cups. You should fill your containers with pond water/greenish-brown water. 25 tadpoles per gallon.
Step 3
Change out half of the water with fresh pond water every 2 to 3 days.
Step 4
Welcome your tadpoles in about 40 days to 140 days -- feed them like adult frogs only with less food.

Warnings
