Tadpole help

I was wondering if anybody would be able to help me with this one. I need to know how soon after tadpoles develop their front legs (after they actually come out) do they need to have a way to get out onto land? We can see the front legs forming in ours and I am thinking that it is gonna happen soon.

If anyone who has bred frogs before could help me out I would appreciate it.

Thanks

Matt

Matt, when my tads grow their legs I move them to a shallow tank with only 2 inches of water and a HUGE slope on to the land part.. my land depth is only 4 inches in the tank, but it takes about 4 inches to go up those 2 inches from the water.. it's a very gradual slope so the toadlets can come out on their own..
This works for me..

Yes you need something coming out of the water as soon as possible. I use a simple rock and it's ok! For your 15 gal you should need like a lot of rock. Don't put to much water BTW only 2-3 inch.

Did you lost some??
Keep us posted
