    Hey guys! About 2 days ago I picked up anothe rIggy and 2 bullfrog tadpoles. Unfortunately one of them died over night.....but I still have one! I plan on getting alot more because they are only 6 buy one get one free!

    The neatest thing about them as tadpoles...is you dont have to feed them until they completely loose their tails...because they feed off their tails as they loose them! Neat huh?

    Oh well hopefully I can get a pair and get some albinos haha. Albino bullfrogs look sooo cool!

    Talk to you guys later!

    You do have to feed bullfrog tads! In the wild, they feed off of algae and decaying plant matter. I guess that theoretically, if you had them in a pond, you'd never have to feed them if there was already a growth of algae. But they do need to eat. They like those Frog and Tadpole Bites too; available at any pet shop.
    I had a large male bullfrog that I raised form a tadpole. I ended up releasing him at a nature center because he was always launching himself at the glass of his 100-g tank, even when he tank was covered. He was so skittish, and it was hard to get him to eat (everything in the house would have to be motionless, hehe.) But maybe yours will not be so skittish.
