What do tadpoles eat ?

and perhaps more important WHAT EATS TADPOLES?!!!!

"TWIN MYSTERY

To many people artists seem

undisciplined and lawless.

Such laziness, with such great gifts,

seems little short of crime.

One mystery is how they make

the things they make so flawless;

another, what they're doing with

their energy and time."

Piet Hein

So you want to know how to raise tadpoles! What do tadpoles eat? It all depends on what kind of tadpoles they are.

Most tadpoles eat little tiny plants called Algae, and other plants too. They love Fairy moss and fish food too.

Then as they grow bigger you can feed them worms and other small insects like flies.

"One day a nice lady poured hundreds of fat, friendly tadpoles into a sunny pond. The water was black with them."

"They ate and nibbled, and nibbled and ate, all round the edges of the sunny pond."

"The next day the nice lady went to look at the tadpoles in the sunny pond and found only six very frightened tadpoles."

"The day after that there were only three tadpoles left. They wriggled in the middle of the sunny pond, and were TERRIFIED!"

"Then there was one. Alone in the sunny pond. The nice lady was sad and bewildered. Where had they gone ..."

"Suddenly, out of the reeds, appeared the monster ... The nice lady gasped. So did the tadpole!"

Sad uh! Tadpoles are just fodder for monsters in the animal kingdom.

Sadly, many humans are also monsters in one way or another. Do you feel like a tadpole, constantly being harassed? Talk to someone about it. Perhaps Dad.

And that is the end of our tadpole story. Thank you, Lorraine Harrison!
