Morphing


The toadpoles have now all morphed into toads. The release into the wild will take place tomorrow evening - tickets available at the door. From 42 poles around 30 toads have survived. Parting will be such sweet sorrow...

I have decided to let them go for two reasons: 1) even though we have introduced mealworms and crickets as per instruction, the toads continue to grow but are not eating the food provided. This worries me, what are they eating, each other? 2) Wally Sr. is not particularly fond of them and wants them off the kitchen table.
