I have now started feeding my Tadpoles. I use floating fish sticks which as the name suggests are made for pond fish but they(the Tadpoles) seem to like them. :)

The tadpoles are still doing fine. The biggest look as though they may be getting their rear legs soon and some are still relatively small for their age. :)

There is a certain chemical (whose name I have known but for the moment forgotten :old: ) which facilitates the growth and presumably governs the rate of growth. I think it may be in short supply in my ponds as I seldom get Froglets before August :shrug:
