We have a large number of healthy tadpoles which are just starting to sprout arms. It's really exciting but also a bit worrying. I have read quite a bit about caring for froglets but would like some more advice. Mainly, can I let the froglets go as soon as they leave the water? We don't live near a pet shop and I can't get hold of blood worms or small crickets to feed them. I can get lots of normal worms which thrive in our compost heap. I could probably buy maggots from the fishing tackle shop. We live in the baby frogs' natural habitat so I assume I could let them go in the garden? Or I could take them back to their stream about a mile away. I think we have about 100! They are active and thriving at the moment and I want to give them the best chance of survival. Any help would be most appreciated.
